Vertical Ventilation: The Sounding Firefighter

The role of the sounding firefighter is critical to the vertical ventilation team. The sounding firefighter should be considered the point man of the operation.

An experienced sounding firefighter makes the operation safer more efficient and increases the odds of success.
