5:57 What the heck are they training for here?

[citybox238]

@chefbabyryan

5:57 is NBC readiness training. All military members have to go through it. The USAF has no intention of phasing out military firefighters.  Some branches have done so as a logistical measure. If anyone is interested in becoming a firefighter, and really wants to "be a firefighter" I highly suggest doing time in the military! Enlisted USAF firefighters are just that......FIREFIGHTERS!! Go for it, it was the best time of my life!!

army is phasing out active duty fire fighters, tried to be one, 88-m instead

[citybox238]

Yeah, I heard that from a friend of mine. Sounds like its true..

@citybox238 Hey man, I'm working with a recruiter right now to get in as a Firefighter in the Air Force. It's just that you cant actually choose the job. You give the counselor like 4 different jobs and the Air Force chooses for you... thats why im hesitant about it =/

@citybox238

That must have been pre-JFIRE suits

4:01, looks like the King didn't get the raise he asked for.

1:39 looks like an F-117 mated with a CRV! I'm going in for Security Forces, and if I ever get qualified as a patrolman, I know that I'll be spending a lot of time hanging around the bases firehouses!

citybox238 hey man, do you get to do any of the tactical training shown towards the end of the movie as an Air Force FF? Firefighting and infantry stuff both interest me.

1:56 I happen to know where that is very well,this is the arrival of the first C-130J pictured in the background. Good ol' Crash 8 pictured with turrets flowing

[chefbabyryan]

Is it true they are phasing out USAF firefighters and replacing them with civilians? And if so WHY????

This video brings back a lot of memories- attended Chanute AFB firefighting school Jan-Mar 81, later assigned to Grand Forks, ND & Galena, AK. Got licensed on P-2, P-4, P-12, P-13, P-15, rode tailboard on the old 530-B. Loved firing up pump and traction Detroit Deisels on the P-2 and flooring it! Didn't love ramp patrol- standby on the alert pad.... BORING! Lost a B-52 & ground crew on the ground in January 83, -40 windchill, hoses frozen solid, sad day. Great new equipment you guys have!
