We have 24 hour shift safety officers. We are certified by FDSOA. The test is given once a year.
Group dedicated to honoring the sacrifices of our fallen brothers / sisters by learning the lessons their last alarm has taught us
Excellent video, the firefighter at the window could utilize a thermal image camera to assist with victim location as well as fire spread.
Great video just like we teach at breathing school. All great points to take in. Good to see agessive and cofindent moves with ground laddes and tool work.

Nice looks like you guys did a great job. If I remember correctly there is a copper pin on the drivers side of the tank. This pin is an emergency pin that will shut down the valves. Did this truck have a pin ? I am trying to gather information regarding the pin working and not working. Great Job! Todd McKee

- We use the same system seems to work good. Except when man power short, we have trouble getting off the truck to do training. I feel that as a fire instructor you need to be out there getting dirt with guys, and seeing what is going on at the fire and with firefighters. It seem that the 24 hour instructors are more respected and looked up to than the BC or 40 hour (political promotion system). Be safe
