I'm supposed to lead by example. You are too .... each of us.... no matter the years of experience or rank. I hope by posting this I am. It's surely another teaching point and quite possibly the most important lesson from the weekend. Clean and carcinogen free .... IT'S THE NEW "SALTY".

I can't explain the feelings I've experienced when I've walked out of an emergency scene and spotted Father Sandy standing there.

I often hear people on the job talk about the mythical "Brotherhood" and how it either doesn't exist or is fading. I couldn't disagree more.

There have been several incidents lately where “MAYDAY” was transmitted and RIT / RIC  (Rapid Intervention Team, Rapid Intervention Crew) was activated. Dave Statter has coverage of the 5 firefighters injured in Washington DC   HERE  . Chris Naum has coverage over at Command Safety on the DOUBLE MAYDAY transmission in the Borough of Queens NY. Find that article HERE . I hope everyone ...

Yea .. I learned a lot from those days ... good and bad. That brings me back to the note.
