This week I have friend Eric Budd, technician at DCFD's Rescue 3, with well over two decades of firefighting experience. We discuss the squad culture of Rescue 3 and their selection and preparedness process, common tactics, training, and key points of dedication, discipline, and details in our profession.

Today we breakdown Air Usage Data on two Mayday fires, one with a LODD. In it, we can begin to breakdown increased air demand, those that are not physically and mentally prepared, those that are highly skilled but need to increase their physical wellness, and what the data looks like for those that are tactically proficient as well being able to handle the adrenaline of the event.

Today I'm joined by esteemed guest, Fire Chief Dennis Reilly (ret.). He has had quite the journey from his time on Long Island and entering the Army at 17, to New Jersey, North Carolina, Iraq and Afghanistan as a security contractor, Missouri, California, and Kansas. He has led a life of service and discipline. We discuss leadership, training, wellness, and so much more. A true honor to speak with a student of the fire service for 51 years and still going strong.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by my friend, Kat Hale. Kat was the first career female firefighter to go through an academy class in Frederick County, MD; and we discuss her viewpoints on being a “fireman;” leaving the service to serve in motherhood; and how her wellness journey (crossfitter, marathoner, tri-athlete, and more) supports her drive for adventure at Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mt. Everest, and in life.
