Fire Academy Week 8

[@MaineAviationCessna]

Just finished an academy here in Maine. Unlike South Metro, our academy brings together departments from throughout the state and is not full time. We learn the same skills but the efficient and standardized way they learn skills in this academy is amazing to watch. This department is truly giving the best training I've ever seen to these recruits. They will be squared away on graduation. Great work.

[@carterthrasher7169]

What a transformation from learning the ropes and now like pros. Truly an innovative department.

I finally caught up with the recent videos after getting back from a trip and I finally downloaded Pulse Point! It’s so cool to finally be able to hear and understand my local FD’s!

[@LaSalseraSensual]

Thank you! Thank you! I just became a Volunteer Firefighter and this is extremely helpful!! Thank you for such a great job!

[@Adam-hp5hj]

How's that going for you?

[@Konsul135]

Seeing the differences between Germany and America is really interesting. When in comes to the construction of houses probably 99% of the houses here in Germany are made out of some kind of brick (eg actual brick, calcium silicate brick...) or concrete. Drywall is only used, if you want to separate one room from the other after the house is build. Our EMS-Training is also very different, even the most basic professional training (after which you are called "Rettungssanitäter which would already translate to Paramedic) takes about 3 months. But that's only the training for the driver of an ambulance, the person in charge of the patient's treatment is a Notfallsanitäter (which would be a critical care Paramedic). The training for that takes a full 3 years 😅

[@SnowWolfMedia265]

I love watching these videos. I listened to South Metro radio scanners, heard you had a fire yesterday.

[@matthewassell6471]

[@upcycledscraps513]

Great content!

[@Ghostslayer-bd5eu]

Have a great day

[@randycarline8169]

Great video Connor! I do have a question though, do you stay at the academy also? Keep up the great work

[@randycarline8169]

You do such a great job with the videos. I have followed you during your news career and of course now with South Metro and I am happy to watch your daily duties. Wish you all the best.

@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO hi, I also had a question. Would you be able to obtain an emt basic while in the smfr academy or no?

[@evhguitarstv43608]

i cant see how that last statement he made about houses now burning faster than houses 50 years ago.. i just renovated a heritage house and you've never seen such dry wood before. not to mention, builders had no regard for fire blocking/ fire provention. and since no thought was really given to providing the house with shear strength (sinse everything was buttoned up with shiplap), id imagine ur looking at a far more dangerous kinda beast extinguishing an older house. correct me if im wrong.

[@evhguitarstv43608]

good point, thanks for the response

[@michaelagneta4341]

So even with all the insulation and houses being more air tight today youre saying that the use of Osb has increased its flammability? I’m very interested in this. Multi family buildings have stricter codes on fire blocking they should burn slower for sure right? 100% houses burn dirtier today with all the chemicals.

[@jaffarabbas6945]

Good job

[@ronthemogul]

This academy has serious money invested

[@ryank1273]

Do you do anything like pipes and drums? I know that a lot of fire departments participate in pipes and drums, and I just wanna know if you guys do that in this department.

[@geoffreyfrancis5143]

[@alfe1402]

At 5:40 the poor guy should need some air too, not just cardiac massage.

[@jackyoung7095]

Did you do fire training

[@jackyoung7095]

Thx so much for answering my questions

[@coasterextreme5514]

Do they sleep there? Sounds stupid but...

[@lindahoff7391]

No at the academy, but of course the line firefighters sleep at the stations. South Metro works a 48 on and 96 off schedule unless there has been a change.

[@matthewgreenwod9422]
