Hey, Jim My name is Leon and I asked the question about how long it takes a firefighter to change into their gear. Say I just wanted to let you know that I didn't get a new t-shirt. I got a shirt with white lettering, not yellow. What should I do? Thank You.
Hey Jim This is Glen from Australia. I can not find the shout out you sent me on one of your episodes. Can you please let me know what episode it is on please?
Hi jim great show again,here in England we use Breathing Apparatus Entry Control Officers to work out times and monitor when B.A.wearers should come out,do you have anything like that in the U.S. or do you guys just manage your own air.
Great question. Most departments have policies. We manage our own air and we have a "heads-up" display to manage air. When one member of the crew runs low on air, we ensure that they exit with another crew member. We make sure they stay in teams of at least two persons.
GREAT question. Briefly it is the Rapid Intervention Team. We set one up at every structure fire. If things go bad inside, the RIT can be rapidly deployed in seconds. I will look at a show on that. Submit the question on our website!! Then if used we can get you a t-shirt
Awesome show. Is this really the only show in the country? I also woujld love to know what is the name of the song in the opening? Thank You.
