Top Issues Facing Responders:
I think our safety is a big issue, because there are so many "IN CHARGE" without the proper training .
I have a brother in law in kilgore texas who is asking about a fire in tyler which killed 2 volunteer firefighters. I s there anyone out there who can tell me where to find the info on this or do u know anything about this fire. It is said the chief sent volumteers into something they had no business going into.
Congratulations on your class coming to an end. It's an incredible relief to get it done with. Everyone I know of has had some kind of hurdle to jump before getting through National Registry and/or State of Georgia. My first one with the state was that I did not have my high school diploma, I provided a certified/sealed copy of transcipts, but they weren't sure if that was good enough. I graduated HS in 1979, I have no idea where that sucker went.
