Thanks for the comment on my training photo's, Yeah we have a whole different way of firefighting over here.. I've been to the USA once..and searched a lot over the internet, but it's also very nice to see the way 'you' are working! :-) I will add some more pictures later on! PS I really love your trucks and stuff.. they are soooooooooooooo nice!!! (that is one thing we don't have! that is for sure!!) Bye Jolande,
Stay Safe!

Thanks I'll look into that book.

I like it tough like that. I really wish my parents had not moved us out of Florida three years ago, but I turn 18 in six months so it's all good. I was able to get my IFSAC Firefighter One and Haz-Mat Ops through the local tech college, but Florida doesn't accept it.
