As for not having a RIT, whadda ya gonna do, just stand there? It's a one story on a slab, the fire is not too far into the structure, and additional crews are just a minute away. Not much risk in the average house of this size. But Gary, ya can tighten it up a bit, don't get sloppy!

Comment by Matt Hatfield on March 29, 2010 at 3:36pm: These fellas seem to get a lot of fires by the amount of vids posted. One would think some of the operation aspects could be worked on as its the same stuff that needs work.Again w/the mount of fires they go to. But on the upside better then other fire videos they have posted.

Comment by michael smid on March 27, 2010 at 4:56pm: ANYONE TAKE A FORCIBLE ENTRY TRAINING,i GUESS KICKING THE DOOR IN AND THEN STANDING IN FRONT OF THE DOOR IS A GOOD WAY TO END UP ON THE LAWN.FORCE THE DOOR AND CAPTURE PEOPLE

Comment by 343NeverForget on March 26, 2010 at 7:15pm: I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes but that was a pretty decent job Gary! With the exceptions of: the guy (and you know who I’m talking about) that didn’t even fit into his PPE’s… there was no RIT/RIC in place (2-in 2-out)… and STILL too many guys entering an IDLH atmosphere without breathing air???

Oh wait, that’s right… it is Gary afterall, good luck guys!
