This is a place where we can sit down, put our feet up and chill. Where the Boys and Girls can just be themselves. The Back Room or what most firefighters call a ''day room or rec room'' is the social point of every firehouse.

Sorry, that seems to be one of the few places that hasn't been represented very much in the closet yet...

Not sure on the schedule of testing yet...instructors are still working with us on our practicals, so it might be a little while yet. For example, need to conduct a search in a simulated IDLH atmosphere, control a live fire, extricate a victim from a vehicle along with a few others from the card that need to be done. Not sure if those need to be signed off before being tested on the donning PPE, SCBA, and a few others or what.

Definitely...I am one that is very aware of the fact that you are never done learning and knowledge coupled with experience really helps to enhance the learning process!!

learn as much as you can. ask questions, thats the only way you're gonna learn it, and they'll be more accepting of helping you out when you're showing such a passionate interest.
