Hey guys - I need some assistance..a buddy and I are extremely new to the fire rescue world...and we are looking for a site that would be a good source of information as far as equipment, usage, etc. While it won't be an official drill, we'd like to be able to take that info into our truck bays and get to know our trucks better. Any suggestions?

We drill every Tuesday night, and we do run out of ideas at times. We do alot of speed drills. We do everything from cummunication drills, to smoke machine drills. We did a fun high angle rescue drill, where we had an injured contractor on the roof of our firehall, that touched a power line while repairing the roof. This required EMS, and fire to go to the roof. We packaged the patient on the roof, and lowered via two laddered firefighters, and back ups, and a stokes basket. The nice part of this drill was, we covered everything from ropes, and ladders, to patient care. Quite successful! Oh yea, we didn't even drop the patient!

i took a class in s.c.b.a confidence and our instuctor took our packs and twisted them all up opened our bypass valves and tied our starps and stuff in knots and we had to go in pitch black and also turn our nomex around and have our fire gloves on and put it back together...the training for that is to know you s.c.b.a it was a good class

KCFD#4 Klamath County Fire District #4 is now using a game to get everyone firmilar with every piece of equipment, one person says the name of a item thats on the Apparatus then another finds the item or does 5 push ups or sit ups, that person can touch 3 doors and move any thing to find the item. then after that persons success or failure, they ask the next person to find the item.

So your saying that what they think really matters to you? Are you doing what you do to satisfy or obligate yourself to them? I think not Bro. If what your doing is because you have chosen to be helpful and serving to your community then who gives...
