Please allow me to invite you to a site designed by responders for responders... the crew that is doing it is CISM multilevel trained and are there for the guys after the bad calls. It helps the responders that do not yet have a team or would be worried that they asking for help would be seen as weakness. Please join and share it when you can. As a chaplain with over 25 years of service to fire departments I am excited with it's potential to provide support.
Howdy from Texas. Haven't got a chance to tell you thx for coming to the Fire Engineering Fort Worth. I really enjoyed your class on truck ops. Oh, almost forgot Homer Robertson told me to tell you hello. Be safe and remember a Truckman is only as good as the Engine Company they are chasing.. Take care from a Water Weasel..
Mike, I am starting to put together a basic EVO class for a local EMS Provider in part of my District. Was told class can't be more than 4 hours long. Got any ideas of what to cover in that limited amount of time?
Howdy Mike from your Favorite Water Weasel from Texas.. Didn't see you this year at the Fire Rescue International.. Did I miss you or where you not able to come for another visit to Texas? Oh FYI: I have been moved to another Station where I now am on a Quint or Truck every shift. Learning Truck work is pretty COOL! Don't rub it in.. Guess I won't be a Water Weasel forever.. HAHA..
Well I guess you have earned a Vacation...HAHA... I will be driving and Acting Up as Lieutenant most of the time.. Got a LOT of learning still to do.. I find myself now yelling at the Engine to get out of the way... Funny how things change..
Mike, I have a couple of training seminars coming up and am hopeful that you may be attending the same. One is Wichita in September which should be huge, the other two are still in the works for Idaho and Iowa.
LT. Wilbur, my wife and I had a great time sharing dinner and conversation with you. We look forward to you and your wife returning to Guam. Next time we BBQ!!... Jon Branch GFD.
LT thank you so much for the T-shirt! I want you to know that I wear it with much respect and pride. Hope to see you again sometime soon but until then take care and please say hello to the wife from us....Lt Jon Branch, Guam Fire Department
Thanks for an enlightening and challenging course with the Long Branch FD last week. I know we took a away a lot of helpful guidance that will benefit our Chauffeur training program. I will be posting the photo's and video's of you driving our old 1976 CF Mack soon.
