Jimm Walsh, co-founder and webmaster here at vententersearch.com will be presenting at the upcoming 2010 FOOLS Convention on September 24th. He will be presenting: â€The Lost Art of the Truck Company.†Check out the FOOLS International website for more details.
Here is a short write-up about the program:
The Lost Art of the Truck Company: Truck company functions have quickly become the lost art of the fire service. Many common fire ground tasks are done simply because that’s what people were trained to do. Many firefighters do not truly understand “why†they are performing certain tasks on the fire ground. Learn some of the most important reasons why truck company functions need to be performed efficiently and effectively at every single fire.
This convention is not in my first due area.
Just go “available in area,reference TRAINING”……
Sounds like a great training opportunity. “truck company functions need to be performed efficiently and effectively at every single fire”- We couldn’t agree with you more!
any chance this presentation could be recorded and either posted here as a download or sold as a dvd for a small price for those of us unfortunate fools that can’t make it to hurricane alley? This sounds like an amazing piece of knowledge that would help so many. Consider my money sent if for sale.
Ditto!
my first due is CT, I’ll be there-from what I’ve heard the FOOLS is a great organization to be part of…they are all about quality aggressive training and giving back not only to the community but to the brotherhood. Most states have a chapter or two from what I’ve seen, I am joining mine! I found the information on their website http://www.foolsinternational.com
I echo the request for a recording either posted online or put up for sale. I’d buy one in a heartbeat! Thanks!
Podcast please!
