Fire erupts in Kalorama
What we know:
The blaze erupted just hours after firefighters responded to the same residence Monday night for an earlier fire.

The mansion is near the residence of former President Barack Obama. The property is currently undergoing renovations.

“Fortunately, the family was not in the home at the time and everyone is safe.,” said spokesman for the Secretary of the Navy, Capt. Adam Clampitt. “The Secretary and his wife would like to thank the DC Fire Department and the Metropolitan Police Department for their rapid response, as well as their neighbors for their outpouring of support and well wishes.”

Monday’s fire, reported around 9:30 p.m., was contained to the first floor and was determined to be caused by an electrical issue, according to D.C. Fire and EMS Chief John Donnelly.

I watch him all the time. I like his behind the scenes of press conferences and of Trump arriving and departing the White House.

The author of this article needs to get his head out of his &ss. A Navy Chief is an E-7 to E-9. You have a Chief of Naval Operations and a DCNO, but they are never referred to as just Chief. They are just Admirals and not qualified to be Chiefs. A Secretary (of any type) in the Navy is not referred to as a Chief. Now, other branches of the service (excluding Coasties, but they are DHS anyway) may, and I have heard them from time to time, refer to the individual running the Army or Air Force as the “Chief.” That is just petty jealousy on their part. They want to be Genuine Chiefs, but they aren’t up to the job. The Marine Corps knows better; the Chiefs control their inoculations. Calling the Secretary or Under Secretary of the Navy a “Chief” is like calling the Commandant Gunny.
