The walk began at Mike's Harley Davidson in New Castle, where participants rang the Bell of the Unforgotten (Bell commemorating the unnamed and missing rescuers and victims of the World Trade Center). The program was led into a procession escorted by Delaware State Police&nbsp; &amp;amp; Fire&nbsp;Police- leading the way for&nbsp;the Red Knights Motorcycle Club, Fire Apparatus,&nbsp;and the Bell of the Unforgotten.&nbsp;
The Bell and Procession arrived to the park where members of the fire service including auxiliary members, family, and participants from the community began the annual 1 mile walk. In full turnout gear and SCBAs, the firefighters and other respective walkers completed the trek. Once completed, each walker read off the name of&nbsp;one of the 343 fallen firefighters from the 9/11 World&nbsp;Trade Center tragedy.
Proceeds from the memorial walk benefited the National Fallen Firefighter's Foundation. &nbsp;...]]>

 <![CDATA[Stations 11, 22, and 13&nbsp;were dispatched to 104 Hay Road for the report of a commercial structure fire at 22:35hrs. Engine 11-5, 11-3, Ambulance 11 and&nbsp;Chief 11-8 were all responding within one minute of dispatch! Enroute crews were advised that there was a roof fire and the correct address was 198 Hay Road, the Steam&nbsp;Turbine Building of Delmarva&nbsp;Power. Engine 11-3 arrived&nbsp;finding smoke showing from the roof, and seconds later observed fire showing and requested the working fire upgrade. Crews initially went in service with a deck gun from 11-3 and were shortly after assisted by master streams from Tower 11 and Squirt 20. Once master streams were setup crews made entry with a handline up stair towers and cat walks about&nbsp;eight stories up to assist in knocking the fire from inside. After a short period of time it was determined that the integrity of the roof was compromised from the fire and the building was evacuated.&nbsp;Because of the decreasing conditions a&nbsp;second alarm was struck, and the decision to use a defensive attack using four&nbsp;handlines,&nbsp;Tower 11, Squirt 20, 25-7 and Ladder 13 master streams to suppress the fire on the roof was made.&nbsp;&nbsp;Finally after almost four hours the crews were able to suppress the fire on the roof, in addition crews were able to contain the fire to the roof. Two ffs had to be checked out by ambulance 11 for heat exhaustion....]]>
