Greene Township Barn Burns

On July 8, 1987 at 12:39 a.m. firefighters were called to the Sunset Pike, Greene Township across from the Letterkenny Army Depot for a barn fire. When firefighters arrived the barn was well involved and efforts were made to save a horse and protect the exposures. A dollar loss on the structure was not available but loss to the contents amounted to $12,000. A cause was not reported. Firefighters from six companies battled the blaze and remained on the scene until 3:10 a.m. The Vigilant Hose, Cumberland Valley Hose and West End Fire and Rescue companies assisted t the scene.

WEFR members Jamie White, Larry Hinkle and Tom Flohr on the deluge gun, unknown firefighters behind them and Letterkenny firefighters in the black gear.

I am sorry to add the word verification but recently 88 of my post were spammed in one night. I do not have the time to correct that many post again, so this will eliminate the bullshit.
