If you follow them through the app it will notify you of incidents no matter your location.

Bro same i was on parker rd and on saw a massive fire cloud i few weeks ago and was a bit confused

Thanks so much!

Gonna go check out your channel

@@thomasfletcher760Get out your knee pads.

Thank you. As a 1st Responder I study ESPECIALLY THESE because we might be part of s Volunteer unit HOWEVER NOTHING about our area is small & we benefit because our dept is mostly all full-time units. Ex our chief is a City Battalion Chief in Mississippi has over 40 years total Top experience & also a teacher at our academy here, we have 2 FT. Paramedics, 6 EMTS, 1 Flight medic, 6 FT Firemen, 1 RN, 4 LEO AND 6 who have anywhere from 5-40 + yrs Vol fire experience under depts like ours which is why I get upset when ALL VOL Depts get a bad name like our LEO people. Our unit is ONLY Volunteer because small town but work 15 miles of I-20 and TOP DEPT & I have a feeling how fast we are growing we won’t be Vol. much longer. But we have a ton of construction going on currently & over 100 new houses BUT MOSTLY RURAL and I have horses and 1st barn I trained at professionally years ago was under a lady who a barn that a rat ate a wire & all but 1 horse died. 2nd barn I boarded at 1 horses there survived a lightning strike barn fire because he was the only 1 W/O shoes. But I use these to help train others. THANK YOU ALL FOR THESE VIDEOS. WUSH OUR CHIEF was great at video speaking but he also has so very little tim. And looking for your stuff & coming to your channel now.

@@heathertownsend949 Same here as a volunteer, our area is huge, in Midland County, TX and we auto-assist Midland FD on most fire calls in county, we have oil and gas fields, million(s) dollar mansions, every kind of commercial structure you could imagine, and even high-rises in downtown Midland, and even an international airport, should the unthinkable(s) happen. It's good to be able to pour over all these response videos, and explainers, etc. We're well trained and have a lot of career guys who volunteer, lots of MFD crossover, and we're about to start a new fire academy for state certs for career for all our guys who arent. Also, we're along I-20 too hahah. Were aiming to be paid in a couple of years.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

We’re still waiting on the tiller to be built and the latest completion timeline is May 2024.

Slap some FLEX TAPE on it!

It was overflowing, not a leak

Same From a distance the smoke looked so thick, it seemed like a fuel depot was burning

In general or in South Metro? They aren't that rare in large cites or densely populated areas like Chicago, Los Angles city and county, or NYC (who had a couple in the past 4 weeks). But for this area, I would assume they are not common. They can go even higher, Kansas City had an 8 alarm several years ago at an apartment complex under construction, strong winds pushed it into a subdivision.

SMFR Dispatch starts a 10-minute timer on all working fires and gives those benchmarks to command until they say to stop. The timer begins at the time of the first 911 call.

The Decon truck is now named Hazmat 17. Once the new Hazmat unit is placed in service we'll have a couple apparatus moves and provide an update about those.

People who think they’re cool by being “first” are no-life losers! Let’s not forget that.

@@johnlebzelter4208 okay kiddo

Yes, very similar to that. Thankfully none of the exposures at this incident caught fire.

Thanks for watching! Let us know if you have any suggestions on how we can improve our content.

@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO www.youtube.com/@BrandweerLunteren, that`s definitely my favorite type of content.

Glad you like them!

@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIOpeople keep being mean to me and what should I do

Why do tell people ur a volunteer it's the same job

@@TomManning-cs4elSame job, different titles. One’s payed the other isn’t. He mentioned it because he wanted to, I don’t find anything wrong with that

@@tyw7205 the problem is they are firefighter it's the same job.... the difference is if a FDNY die everyone shows up but they think ur a scab .....

@@tyw7205 and why do you think I Care what u think go back to whatever rock u crawled out of

No, there wasn’t

Thankfully there was no extension to the home. Flames spread into a grassy hillside with pine trees that sits between the two structures and firefighters stopped it there.

Excellent, please email employment@southmetro.org with questions about joining SMFR.

It’s possible that air support could be used to fight a structure fire, but it’s rare especially in a metropolitan area. This time of year in Colorado we have few air resources available due to freezing temperatures and low demand for wildland fires.

Ok

I have a question can y’all make a video on talking about how fire helicopters

Thanks! I still have my leather, but I’m trying out the Phenix First Due and like it lot.

Thanks for watching and best of luck during fire school! Firefighter LaBorde provides some great advice for new firefighters in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pEIFG7-cmzY.htmlsi=M0rmzLRCNVIsU5Z-

All hands on deck

Yes, Hägglunds tracked vehicle suffered a major mechanical problem and the cost versus benefit to replace it was not justified. It will be replaced by a Lenco MedCat in late 2024 which will be used regularly by SWAT Medics and occasionally for deep snow events.

PIO's can respond emergent if the incident commander asks for an emergent response, or if the incident warrants and justifies a PIO's immediate involvement.

Rescue 34 and Tower 34 are due for replacement and SMFR's model of cross-staffing them can cause response delays. Purchasing a tiller saves the cost of replacing both vehicles and will allow the combination aerial/rescue to be staffed at all times.

SMFR requires riders to be 18 unless they're an Explorer or in a high school emergency services program. Here is a link to all the requirements www.southmetro.org/610/Ride-Alongs

An Engine carries a full compliment of equipment and at SMFR they carry between 500 and 1,500 gallons of water. Tender's carry very limited equipment and 3,000 gallons of water with the sole purpose of rural water supply.

Thank You @@nicholashe1198

Any staff unit including Bureau, IDT, PIO that arrives on scene first is required to air an initial radio report to dispatch. By default, they're the incident commander until a more qualified or higher ranking person arrives and assumes command.

We have a fairly recent day in the life of a PIO video at this link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8JSZc1a-9zc.htmlsi=CnH9BT27xxntMBMQ

"Map Page" refers to the 1 square mile map grid where the incident is occurring. Prior to GPS our crews relied on paper map books to route their way to emergency scenes and the map page helped them find the location faster. The map page letters and numbers are listed along the sides of this district map www.southmetro.photography/Misc-Photos/2019-SMFRA-Map/i-kNBKk9Q/A

Tower 34, Medic 34 and Tower 45 personnel are all required to be tiller trained. Both stations are Technical Rescue and their firefighters are all training together. The Fleet and Training logos are also on this apparatus to represent all the teamwork and contributions that made this apparatus possible.

@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO Can we get a fleet Friday on your new expedition?

When will Red 2 return?

The weight of a water drop would collapse and send debris flying everywhere.

@@hihfty makes sense

We’ve seen some rural videos where air drops were made on vehicle or structure fires but that’s very rare. Aside from collapse potential and the enormous cost, Colorado has very limited air resources available during winter with freezing temperatures and few wildfires.

​@@hihftyplus, I think the aerial water drops may not be accurate enough in an urban firefighting incident.

Lauren moved back to California and is a fire PIO there now.

Nope i was

No one gives a shit

@@Chrizzz_009🤣🤣🤣 stop embarrassing yourself!!! No one cares!!!

@aidanallred3550 Do you think you’ll get a big trophy to show your parents and hope they will finally be proud of you?!?!
