When I was Capt there we had BIG rats living along the old subway bed and the station grounds. We had an idea that we could kill the rats by pour gasoline down the holes by the fence line. When it blew up the whole station rocked but luckliy did no damage to the station and the rats lived on. One night we killed 6 or 7 inside the station and hung them from their tails from a tree like sufari trophys.

I see from the cartoon that you are at E13. I loved being Capt at 13's
Stay safe

This group will focus on aggressive interior firefighting. We will address tactics that increase your chance of not getting jammed up and cover what actions to undertake if you do.We will cover some big issues as well as small tactical tips
