    Great idea Chuck. I have always been a fan of ensuring an area of refuge be it an apartment or office/room across and down the hall prior to making attack. Also knowing building constructionn and your district can be huge. One of my captains when I was fresh out of the academy and on EMS runs etc... would ask me when the patient was loaded on the ambulance. What if questions. How would you attack the fire? Where would you vent? HOW WOULD YOU GET OUT??? Be safe everyone!

    I'm trying to get one of our guys to realize that the nozzle is not a forcible entry tool. He has used it 3 times in the last year as his entry tool.

    What kind of success does he have with his nozzle tool?
