Completed Truck Company Operations Course

  Tuesday, October 6th 2009

I have completed the month long "Truck Company Operations" course. Special thanks to the Mechanicville Fire Department who hosted the course - and naturally, special thanks to Chief Myers from Schuylerville who taught the course.

For all my fellow firefighters, I strongly recommend taking this course - it was a great opportunity to practice a lot of the "basics" that we tend to take for granted.

I also was asked to "teach" a drill regarding ladder techniques - basically to regurgitate everything that was taught in the course, to my fellow firefighters who could not take it. I am glad to see that it was very well received and that I was able to help out my teammates.

For those who are curious, you can find out more about what "Truck Company Operations" is all about via Firehouse.com online training.
