| On 7/21/2011 at 09:55 Company 3 was alerted to Point Lookout Rd in the area of the Great Mills Post Office for the motor vehicle accident. Engine 32 and Squad 3 marked up seconds after. While en-route Fireboard communications advised they were taking more calls stating that the single occupant was trapped and the vehicle was on fire. With that information the rescue assignment was upgraded adding Rescue Engine 62 and Medic 291. Chief 3 was the first to arrive reporting a single vehicle thru the utility pole with wires on the ground and that bystanders had knocked the fire with a fire extinguisher and rapidly extricated the patient. Eng 32 and Sq 3 arrived; while the engine crew deployed a protection line the Squad crew assisted Ambulance 397 with patient packaging. Command had then requested a helicopter category "B" and relocated Eng 32 to handle the Landing Zone at Great Mills High School. All units were ready and in quarters within a half hour. Chief 3 held the command
