Who’s going to FDIC this year? The Fire Critic, Firefighter Wife, Model City Firefighter and I will be there and have we got the ticket for you!!!   Yea, FDIC is all about learning and you wont find better classes or instructors anywhere else. What’s even better is that, once again; on Friday night we’re giving you the perfect chance ...

Just like last year, The Fire Critic and I will be having another "meet up". This year, we have teamed up with several other groups / organizations to make the event even bigger and better than last years! I know ... you don't know how that can be possible but TRUST ME .... you will NOT want to miss this event!! This year, we are calling it The 2014 Firefighter Turnout and you wont want to miss it!

For us, it's not so much about supporting Career vs. Volunteer; it's about supporting the Fire Service.

It's about supporting our Brothers and Sisters who are out there in the street day after day.... on the FRONT LINES of America sacrificing themselves and all that they have in the service of others. It's WHO WE ARE and a pay check will and can NOT define us.

Once again, I have a ton of catching up to do. I think I warned ya before heading out to Orange County with the Roanoke Rampage...

Or maybe I should say “TAKE” your own water. I received a few e-mails following Monday’s post  “Tricks of the Trade.. RIT Tips“ . The post was intended to offer only a few “tricks” concerning the removal of (dragging) a downed firefighter. The e-mails I received wanted to know more about what we carry with our RIT team ie: stokes ...
