Box transmitted for fire at 18 Holly Street, near Glenwood Avenue.  Report of elderly person trapped.

Heavy fire showing from a 2 story wood frame; requesting box filled out and s/c fast team.

Engines 31, 11, 21  Ladder 25  Ambulances 400, 100, 200  Battalion    Fast team from Sub Base FD in Groton, Canteen Unit.

@1508: Victim removed from structure, being turned over to EMS unit.

@1510: EMS transporting non-breathing fire victim to Lawrence and Memorial Hospital.  Two lines stretched and operating.

1520: Battalion reports fire knocked down, working on overhaul.
 
Even though this 85 year old woman sadly did not survive, credit certainly goes to those New London, Ct firefighters. They responded to that fire with three guys on the engines, and two guys on eveything else. They are a great group of firefighters.
 
Well said, Willy D.  They did an awesome job with heavy fire and got the woman out of the building alive.  NLFD does extremely well with limited manpower, like many other departments out there.
