Overall: Very well written new article! After going through at each requirement, virtually everything passes 🙂 I have two small concerns, however, before approving the hook. First, copyvio flagged the phrase "suffering from smoke inhalation and other injuries" as being taken straight from the source. I would rephrase this just a little as seven words is a little long to be used without quotation marks (which you otherwise do very well with). Second, your ALT0, which I have a personal preference towards, is a little hard to read with all the commas. What do you think of the proposed ALT2 I've added as an alternative? Once these are addressed we should be good to go. As a member of WikiProject Firefighting, I want to thank you for your contributions to firefighting on the encyclopedia. Cheers!

- @Johnson524:, thank you for reviewing this DYK! I just wanted to ping you to let you know that I made an edit to the article to remove the copyvio issue. Additionally, I made a slight edit to your ALT2 (removed a stray "the"), but otherwise, I like it! -JJonahJackalope (talk) 21:20, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
