Where firefighters come to talk training
Mayday Procedure
My department doesn't have a current Mayday procedure and I have been tasked by my D/C to draft a proposed procedure and am looking for any ideas or other mayday procedures to start from. Look forward to exchanging ideas. Let's see what is out there!

Chief, I read your departments Firefighter Safety and Survival SOP and it was very impressive. It was brief, simple, and easy for all members to apply. It encompassed alot with very little room for error. You guys did a great job in developing the SOP. With your permission, I would like to show this to my Captain in an attempts to develop a similar standard.
