Where firefighters come to talk training

"The 10 Year Itch"

We have been told that our firefighting equipment can no longer be in service after 10 years....

For some fire companies, 10 years would leave it barely broken in... others it would be long since useless and nearly shredded.

So, what's the point?

While we are not all the "same" in terms of volume... the point is, we are all the "same"... we are Firefighters and Fire Officers.

Your next fire could be the "one" you talk about for the next "10 Years" or just "one in 10" you go to this month.

In Either Case... It's up to you, how will you perform? How "Itchy" is your team for success? Are you barely broken in, shredded or somewhere in-between?

Is your next job the "one" or just "one in 10?"
