Where firefighters come to talk training

DEATH TRAPS - SEPTEMBER MAGAZINE ILLUSTRATION

The late Francis Brannigan said it best, "The building is your enemy; know your enemy". Building construction is getting lighter, more synthetic, and failing sooner under fire conditions; we are wearing more thermal protective gear and going in further - it's obviously a dangerous and often deadly combination.

Pre-plan, study, document, and train, train, train! Knowledge is our best defense while maintaining an aggressive firefighting mentality.
