It is a volunteer dept of around 40 members. I have recently started to push the basics in our dept .I have designed 4 specific trainings that are all important fire ground basics that all members must be able to do. My Chiefs have given me a lot of leeway on this and all of their support. After the first two trainings have gone by I have several members who are now recognizing that they have weaknesses and need to improve. And I also have a few that are finding that their age is starting to show or that they are way out of shape in a dangerous way. I tell all of them that there is no shame in having a weakness,but there is shame in not doing something to fix it. So I would like to say to you Ron K, and Billy G... Thank you for these articles and for the wisdom you share with us. It is men like you who give men like me the drive to do all I can to keep my men safe.x15https://www.blogger.com/profile/00444532896412385570noreply@blogger.com
