Where firefighters come to talk training

Exterior and Interior Operations, Fire Behavior

I was recently having a discussion with a member of another FD and during this discussion we began talking about a call in the past (as you know us firefighters like to do). He mentioned that he was interior moving down a hallway toward the fire room when someone operating outside sprayed water in through the window into the fire room which "caused it to flashover" so he pulled his crew back "saving their lives".
