You go out on the fire boat "Gallantry" one day during recruit course, just a cruise in the Port river and they squirt some water.

Yes, there is some water training during the recruit course but it dosen't involve the marine vessel, it involves the STAR group Police officers........ well at least it did, I don't know about now  :-o .... LOL  :-P

Which State Government is kinder to the MFS...? ie who should I vote for because they will give me a better opportunity to get in? Or are they all the same?

Definitely not Liberal

[Monger]

Massive rumour going around that there will be no drill squad this year

[BT085]

Any latest whispers ferret? I guess determined by upcoming release of state budget ...

[flyonthewall]

There's a review being done to update recruit training information and current teachings.

Could it mean something is in the works?.............Don't know  :?

[FF GAZZ]

Everyone noticed their is a new PID plus MFS took delivery of 5 new pumpers so they should have some available for training. I guess it comes back to funding, the number of retirements and trainers available.

Pretty sure they had trucks available for training before the arrival of the new appliances. Its not the first drill squad they have ever run...

[Pipster]

The Pumpers were funded from previous budgets - and they, I believe, have been delivered much later than originally planned.

Who is "they"?
I've heard this many times before unfort!

[Krank]

'They' are the voices in his head. T.M. 33B.
Nothing has been set as yet. the real 'They' are hoping to get something happening soon. The recruit training guys still don't know anything as yet.

[BT085]

His comment has disappeared anyway haha

[pumprescue]

No recruit course this year

[Monger]

No recruit course this year

But they may start an application process this year?

[Krank]

Definitely no course this year. Possible cab rank by Christmas for course start in early 2015

[pumprescue]

Yeah maybe, see what happens

[FF GAZZ]

Although it could be possible the MFS could recruit later in the year they usually update the website advising they are recruiting in the near future a month or two before hand so unless they update it over the next couple of weeks it would make sense they update the website in September for applications in January/ February, as that's what they have previously done anyway.
