That is Bowling Green State University in Ohio. The trailer says Ohio Fire Academy. They run a fall and sping fire school every year. Some really good training opportunities.

I have been there several times for training.

I have been to BG, KY more times. Went to WKU....lol

This is the State's flashover simulator in the picture. This is not representative of the BGSU State Fire School classes. There are too many to list. Take as many as you can.

This is one of the greatest tools ever invented for the training of firefighters. The ones we have here in Kentucky have shown many of young firefighters how a flashover starts and how it's ends. The only thing I can tell you if you have never went into one is to stay as low to the floor as you can... Great photo and post.
