So today started out kind of hairy. My car would not start this morning. I had to be at the training center by 7:00...7:30 at the latest. My wonderful wife, got up and took me to the training center and I arrived at 7:10.
Today we finished out chapter on Fire Behavior. We had our third quiz (one everyday for the last three days) and then hit the books. The lessons were very interesting. Hopefully it will all transfer over for the test on Monday. We concluded our training by heading out to the drill ground. There, our instructor lit some wood on fire and showed us how different fuels react with water when lit. It was very cool to actually see what we've been talking about. Next week, we hit the drill ground with PPE...I hope.
PT was with our Tues. / Thurs. trainer. He grouped us into fours, and we did different tasks back and forth across the basketball court. I did well on most exercises. The body drag is still not one of my best ones, but at least I did better then before.
All in all, a great day. I can't believe I get paid to learn about fire suppression and get a daily work out. It really is a great place to be....
