ALL THOSE WISHING TO PARTICIPATE IN FIRE FIGHTER LEVEL 1 TRAINING PLEASE CONTACT DUTY UNIT MANAGER 0427 714 239 SES Pt Lincoln

Anyone have anymore info?

[RescueHazmat]

I know SES in the past have participated in Level 1 courses. - basic knowledge in fire fighting safety and principles, guess is meant to give them better understanding if assisting at larger incidents / working with CFS members.

Think maybe it will be a pre-requisite for futher interstate fire deployments.........just in case a BBQ breaks out :evil: :-D :-( :cry: aaaahhh lighten up!

[Alex]

Doesn't hurt to have some basic knowledge.

It may also have something to do with bomber support, although im not sure that Pt Lincoln SES participate in that.

awww Mac.....don't confuse a little mutual fun poking as hate...thats a very strong word.

its all TIC fella

[Bagyassfirey]

i realise its tongue in cheek...i just always stick up for SES because they are good 4 us in our area.

I saw where MT was coming from - and realised it was all stiring in good fun! Just out of interest - several Orange peril units have done BFF1 for exactly the reasons stated, they work on the fire ground.
It was a pity while in SA it wasn't offered to us (my unit), since we were stepping off our boats onto the fireground & actually fighting fires (the GO at the time didn't think we needed it).
So great idea I reckon (considering the fire risk that area of the state seems to face every summer)& Mac I've never come across a firefighting type person who I would say hated us - they just wanted to take our toys away :wink:
cheers & have a good one

[Darren]

All the more reason to merge the service  :wink:

[boredmatrix]

ah feck it..lets just go US style....EMS/Fire/rescue all in one......

...on 2nd thoughts......that wouldn't work for this forum

coz you lot wouldn't be able to whinge about how long it took SAAS to call fireys :evil:

[chook]

Ah no Darren - need to spread the egotist out not clump them altogether :wink:
And yes Boardy you are of course quite correct - you paramedics are just so preceptive :-D (did you see All Saints last night? - Made me spew :-D )

Just a BYO Bi-Carb Soda party! :-D

[Zippy]

Hazmat Reduced: 1 Hazmat Brigade..possibly none if its just an investigation that leads to a conclusion of an Oil Spill...but better safe than sorry ;)
Hazmat Incident: 2 Hazmat Brigades or more
Assist SAAS:  *shrugs* hazmat might be needed...

[Alex]

Mmmm.... but how is a 20L Sulphuric Acid spill a "HAZMAT Reduced"?

[Pipster]

Isn't it reduced when you hit it with copious amounts of water....?  :evil:

Since when were Virginia a hazmat brigade?  And how often does sulfuric acid turn out to be oil?
