“Great save by that crew,” Hohenberger said of FMFD’s Truck 1 firefighters.

Hohenberger said the house had smoke damage and the garage is a total loss. In addition to Argyle and Flower Mound, firefighters from Denton, Double Oak and Lake Cities fire departments also assisted.

The home is owned by a family of four that recently moved to the area and the father is a distinguished disabled Army Veteran.

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help the family at gofundme.com/f/one-team-one-mission.
