SA Firefighter

They're having a bit of a run at the moment they had a couple small domestics and one small commercial fire last month, those BA seats in their new pumper are getting a workout.

SAAS crews were responded from Meadows and O'Halloran Hill.Due to Cat1 closest emergency resource is dispatched as backup,and Kangarilla have an Oxy Viva :wink:

Good argument for the first responder qualifications for rural brigades.

I'm not surprised they didn't respond to an exercise at 3:30am in the morning :lol: :roll:

Exercise Daybreak

They have done them  before....all night exercises.  although its at an odd hour of the day its probaly the best time to get everyone together.

i remember the strath group doing one about 15 year ago when my old man was with Milang.  Apparently a lot of fun.

SES have done this previously either within a Unit, multi-Unit or region basis. Normally a multi-task incident, or a major single location with multiple casualties (eg USAR or Land Search).

Incident controllers and others get a work out controlling crew rotations, logistics (fuel, water, food, vehicles, shelter, transport, etc). Individuals learn more about how they cope with stress & fatigue.

Have seen it also run as a desktop exercise where extra issues of a rescue vehicle is lost be an explosion in the middle of the incident or a crew member is confirmed injured. Really makes you think.

And I thought it was illegal for anyone to take action from a scanner ? Three minutes is a very good response time ?   :evil:

the advantages of living at a station and having a big red truck with flashing lights and sirens :-P

Dont the news always get their info from scanners and pager site?

QuoteAnd I thought it was illegal for anyone to take action from a scanner ? Three minutes is a very good response time ?

It was also illegal until very recently to record something off the television with your video recorder and play it back, sometimes it is not practicable to enforce every law.

Most of the stuff the news crews get is from the scanner and pager programs.

And I thought it was illegal for anyone to take action from a scanner ? Three minutes is a very good response time

hay we have a 3 min response time for 80% of the call outs.

And I thought it was illegal for anyone to take action from a scanner ?

I had a phone call from one of the girls at the Advertiser when I called in a flooding job at the shopping center I work in. She seemed a little surprised when I started asking her how legal it was for her to be using my info from pager messages.

I think it's fairly clear from that example that Ch7 (and so probably the others too) have their own paging decoders (which I have long suspected) rather than using the paging website.  3 mins is not enough time for the site to update, them to ring MFS, and MFS to send out the second page.  Plus of course the media have been doing that long before the paging website was started.

Of course they have their own! :lol:

If the first one is SES then why send CFS ?

CFS are a lot closer than SES from Sturt and got the job done before SES arrived.
