E269 - School Bus Mass Casualty Event Break Down.
This week Todd and Ash debrief a school bus MCI fairly close to home. Thankfully no children had any life threatening injuries. Listen in as they talk about the challenges and all the things that come to mind in an incident like this.
WHO WE ARE
As a group of Rural Volunteer Firefighters, our Fire Department has built our firefighter training from both old and new tactics in the fire service and adapted them to fit the realities of equipment, manpower, and costs around what our community requires.
WHAT WE DO
We create video, audio and written word content to share these training and tactics methods with our Brothers and Sisters in our extended fire families, and to showcase to those that may be interested in becoming firefighters the fun you can have and the amazing skills and abilities you get to learn, whilst keeping the lives of the people around you safe!
WHY WE SHARE
Firefighters are problem solvers whose role requires them to be on their best day whilst others are having their worst day, and while we do not claim to be perfect we are willing to put our lives on the line to try. It’s during the trying that we continue to develop the mindset, tactics, and training that allow us to be effective, safe and successful where it’s needed the most, and by sharing our experiences we hope that it may help other Fire Departments in creating what works for them to help bring everyone home safe.

E264 - How we build a FTX / Scenario - Arson Structure Fires
This week the whole crew is back together and we talk about building a scenario or an FTX. How to plan out whats required, what is expected and how to react when things don’t go as planned. Ash breaks down a recent Arson Scenario where the crew was dispatched to their training grounds with signs of smoke showing with no fire engines on scene from a nearby resident. The call progressed into multiple Pt’s missing, multiple burn buildings on fire that had command looking to take a step back and hand off areas of the scenario to his officers for the best outcome.

E262 - Podcast and Brand Update
This week we made the tough choice to announce a brief break in podcast episodes. All 3 of us are currently being pulled in many directions outside of the podcast which has made creating content increasingly difficult. We felt it was in ours and our listeners best interest to pause production for what could be a few weeks or months and come back with a new focus and a re branding of what we are delivering on a weekly basis. We want to thank each and every one who has been with us on our journey and can’t wait to get back soon chatting with you all.
