My department requires through our County Fire Chief's Association for members to be trained at the Operations Level. This allows us to have a deffensve attack for the emergency, however we do ahve everal Techs on our department,.With me being a commander and a HazMat Instructor we get to train on HazMat several times a year. I did not feel that Operations is enough training and feel that A tech is the level all members should be. Todd
