My favorite is Murphy's Laws: Law 1 we all know and love, anything that can go wrong will go wrong. I personally find Mr Murphy's second law even more enlightening: MURPHY WAS AN OPPTOMIST.

USMC ism's as applied to Firefighting.
Improvise, adapt and overcome.
And for the fellow truckies
When you absolutely positively need it broken overnight.

Test for potential truckmen:
Empty room
Bowling ball
Enter candidate
Lock door
Return in 30 min
If ball is broken send candidate to nearest truck company

For the instructors out there:
Gentleman you are the top 1% of all naval aviators (insert appropriate firefighting designation)
Viper from Top Gun

You have to do something in your life that is honorable and not cowardly if you are to live in peace with yourself, and for the firefighter it is fire.
