At 8:56 pm on Monday, March 26th, Box Alarm 823 was struck out for a reported building fire in the 200 block of Lombard Road in the Calvert area of Company 8's first due.

A First Alarm Tanker Task Force was quickly requested.
Command directed Engine 18 to initiate the supply lay halfway down the drive. E18 led off with 1000' of 4" and the lay was completed by next arriving E812 with an additional 800' of 4" from Lombard Road.

 In the afternoon of March 26th, Company 8 was alerted for a Fire of Undetermined Origin in Box 823 in the 100 block of Shelton Lane. Making the initial response were: Chief 8 (Command), Engine 18, Engine 812, Tanker 8, and Brush 8. The Chief arrived to an approximately 100 foot tall hollow tree burning on the inside. The size-up confirmed that nearby electric lines and 30 plus mile an hour winds combined to light the tree on fire. While Delmarva Power and Maryland Forestry were requested, Command 8 made a very unusual request for Truck 8 to make the response to the scene.
