Bill, no that was the year before I arrived. I dont think my predecessor's career was enhanced by the incident. Two of the foam vehicles collided on the way to the fire, another stopped with its wheels on a hose which had just started to produce foam, leaving the situation you described. Meanwhile the Belvedere burned to a smoky smudge on the grass! The one I referred to had a happier outcome (except for the pilot's ankle!)
