If you end up fighting a lot of bushfire, you should put some food and drinks on the rig. We try to carry enough to spend 24 hours in the field with no re-supply, a real lifesaver in the opening hours of a big bushfire.

A couple of things that I had on my "Wish I had" list: A "cheater" bar for some of those hydrants that are so far out they haven't been properly serviced. A short-handled sledge, for when there isn't room to get a full swing. A good bow saw. Fo...

9/11

if you were old enough to remember 9/11/2001 you will never forget it I was sitting in class when the whole thing unfolded and the first thing that went through my mind when that building collapsed was all those fire fighter had to give there lives when they least expected it in a event that could have never happened. this hole thing could have been avoided but there is no reason to point blame on anybody but it shows how a persons life can be cut short when they least expected it that building… Continue
