Volunteer or career, small staffed or big job it doesn’t matter. What does matter is how much you’re forced to understand. Position based firefighting is the IQ of the job. It’s knowing where you fit, what needs to get done, and being able to pivot when it doesn’t go the way it should. Search, communication dialect, the 360, fire attack, Mayday…none of it stands alone. It all ties back to position and awareness.
With more people, the work is divided. With less people, it stacks. Either way, the expectation stays the same.
This episode breaks down how understanding your position drives everything you do on the fireground and why not knowing it gets exposed fast when things start to move.
