So who do you gotta talk to do be allowed to head back there if you do not take the tour?
Are you talking about different types, or different colors? In my department (volunteer department) we all wear the traditional style once you have established that you are going to stay with the department for a little while...until that point yo...
What FETC said is great, I will tell you our story as well.
About a year or so ago we went through the same thing. We had an old Argus camera. One thing I will say is put together a committee and have your vendors bring camera out to you...don't ...

In an hour, not a lot you can cover but a lot you can go over. On thing I would hit would be different size lines and what pressures to pump them at and how to pump different pressure li...

you are on the right track here Adam... looking for a boilerplate example to copy makes sense. Why reinvent the wheel? come up with a collection of examples, put them together using your department name and create a draft. Once this is done, make ...
Ours covers it all, and it works well. Even if you get a guy with certifications, how else do you know if he reallys knows how to do it or if he is full of it. I figure if you cover all the bases you are good from no cert/training through an instr...
I guess I could have been a little more specific...I am sorry.
I think you are on the right track as to what I am looking to do, although honestly I am not all that sure and the more I work on it the bigger it gets and the more it seems to be tak...
My thoughts exactly.

I think this is a very good definition of the word, "Irony".
Capt, if it's the one I'm thinking of, yes I've seen it. And I kind of took it the same way. If it's what we (and others) seem to think it's about, we'll be reading a NIOSH report on him/his dept. one of these days (although I really hope not to.)
Jake,
I would have thought that a "threshold" ff would be a transitional stage, from exterior to interior, or I suppose it could be the "next" level up as "firefighter", you know as in:
exterior,
