Modesto Residential Structure Fire in District 1 territory. Station 91 engine first on arrival. Perspective from Engineer Operator Saucedo. Community Volunteer Fire Department
Constantly on the move, assessing and providing for the needs of the crew; prime example of taking initiative. Fantastic engineer, many should take notes from this video. Hell, this video should be used in engineer school. Props to you, boss.
As a Law Enforcement Officer this is great to watch. I usually see some engineers just watching and playing security guard but you sir are always moving
Holy crap man! I absolutely love the hustle you had on scene. You never stopped moving!! This definitely should be used as a training video for up coming engineers, hell even for me!! Fantastic work man!! Stay safe
@@tylerpatrick1566 yeah for sure i get that. Once water is established and your guys are taken care of it should free you up some to help out where able.
Probably the best engineer POV i have seen in quite some time. And I see Engine 91 was using reserve engine 2 which is an older pierce if im not mistaken
Also telling by the radio traffic, engine 91 (In reserve engine 2), engine 92, engine 93, Rescue 91, and a command car on scene. @RealJuanSaucedo was Ladder 91 on scene?
My dad is captain in Arizona for the fire department. He wants to be a chief or battalion but not an engineer. When I’m 18 he said he’s gonna go over things with me and I could go on ride alongs. I wanna be a captain and engineer.
Nice man, you’re going to fall in love with the service. Your dad will steer you in the right direction, keep pushing the standard and represent the service well!
@@Sauce.response Ok interesting, is Engineer Operator a certain rank or position with a insignia or something, or just more of an assignment. Also what is a District Captain, is that different from a Station Captain and more like a Battalion Chief?
@@user-vp2nn6jo1j Engineer is a rank/position with normal black helmet and black shield with engineer title. We only have 1 station per district, so yes in a sense also like a station captain. Hope I was able to answer your questions, check out our website for more details and info! www.communityvfd.com/
Good question, the process is called “flushing the hydrant” this is done to ensure no debris is present within the hydrant that could clog the supply hose or centrifugal pump in the engine apparatus. It’s also done to ensure you have a working hydrant that can supply water to the pumper.
