My girlfriend is having a baby so my question is what car seat have u seen personally save the most lives. And most infinite/children r killed because the car seat isn't installed correctly can I go to a firehouse and will u show me how to instill

Asked by Jessy Wolsleben over 7 years ago

The best person to ask that would be the consumer safety commission, they tend to monitor these matters. As for installation a large majority of police and fire depts have employees trained just for that. Our police dept handles thos for us.

Do you think a person torching can instantly his pants catch on fire front and back. Could there have been a leak in the line to cause propane to leak onto his pants. This happened in gresham sc

Asked by Danab over 7 years ago

I am going to try to guess your question. If you are referring to a torching can for setting backfires and a persons pants caught fire quickly, I can only assume there would be a hole in a line. If my guess is not correct rewrite your question please.

Asked by madison woolley about 7 years ago

when I first started in 1989 it was 14,261 a year and now mid 60's. Up in the East Coast and West coast it is considerably higher due to the cost of living. We currently have 2 female fighters and one of them had a baby last year and back at woork.

As long as it would not impede you from performing the rigorous tasks that could be required no. After all it is treatable.

Hey I asked the question about hitting a fire from exposure. Please and and let me know if you still believe it is 2nd floor. Under defensive tactics

Asked by JJ Watt over 7 years ago

You need to keep in mind that you were directed to attack from the 4th floor from a higher authority so there is no freelancing in the fire service. Every defensive attack is different. Is there burning embers that are of concern that you couldnt reach from 2nd floor thus attack from the 4th floor. To broad of a question to give a certain answer.
