A group to discuss becoming a better instructors!
Everyone can say that we have a staffing problem, but how do we fix it?
We can achieve safe staffing thru ESP:
Education& Emotion, Standard & Statistics and Political Action. This group will share info on staffing.
A place to discuss any and all things related to Truck Company Operations on the fireground.
This group is designed to focus on the increased number of Flashovers that firefighters are encountering today. Anyone with an experience is encouraged to share it in order for all to learn from. Questions are encouraged.
No matter what type of tactics or operations your department provides, the quality and efficiency are dramatically affected by the leadership skills of your officers. Leadership is the most important element of everything we do!

We are not new to the quint respnses, our 70' platform is replacing a 65' telesquirt that is going out of service. With this new truck we will be attempting to move more towards a traditional truck company ops and further away from quint activities. I know we will not be able to be toatally seperated since this unit will be housed in a station without an engine. It also has to be set up for 2nd or 3rd out ALS responses.
I would love to see a list of the equipment you have on your sutphen and how you like the truck.
thanks,
Dan Ryan you can contact me directly at Ryan@bonitafire.org
