My Experience at Fire Protection Tech School 

Good Shit. You rarely see ladies in the air force as fire fighters. You’re awesome. I wanna be a fire fighter too

i did the technical rescue course back in 94, for some one from the UK I had a great time. Liked it so much went back and did Fire Inspector course 👍🚒🚒🚒

Worked at Nellis Fire 96-2020. It was a great job. The hours were crazy, and happy now that I can spend time with my family. Stay safe and keep the needle moving forward is my advice.

Just graduated from there it was my favorite experience so far

This video helps so much since I'm thinking about doing this, thank you!

I can’t believe it’s been 8 years since I went through that academy

Army firefighter here. Goodfellow was the best time I've ever had!

PLEASE DONT STOP MSKING VIDEOS EVER

Its so much different than when i went in in 1976, for the better. Ii was a MTI as well and i hated seeing the discipline taught in Basic Training get lost in Tech School. Students and Instructors use first names and no respect for rank. I the fire service it was lost faster because of having civilian FF. I think military FF should rank over them, a SSgt who was a station chief overseas is on the nozzle and a GS-5 supervises them. Thats the reason i crossed trained.

Just graduated BMT and shipping this Friday, been a HOA for a week but school starts may 7th super stoked!

That dummy drag is surprisingly difficult

I’m a FF/ EMT-I on the civilian side and was wondering how tech school would go if I had most of the required certs (FF 1-2, Hazmat and EMT)?

Was the base you’re stationed at on your dream sheet? And when did you fill out your dream sheet?

Hey Kira, just watched love the video. My daughter is in the process of joining and this is the job she picked. How hard is the dummy drag/carry and do u recall the dummy weight? Any advise on workouts?

do you genuinely like this job? i’m 17 and trying to find some jobs i will enjoy and this has always been on my list. would you recommend?

I have to say so many changes since I went thru in 1976. It is a great career. Enjoy it

Lol s/o to the way you threw a little graduation party mid way through the video 😅

Sounds fun!!! 🔥🚒

What if my spelling is not that good will I still be ok in this mos or is spelling a major factor with this mos Because my spelling is horrible

I’m 31 and want to be a career firefighter I have a 6 week EMT course in June. I come from a family of military officers but know for ff you can only go enlisted. Does the pay seem enough for you to vacation etc? I have a bachelors degree but know the only difference that makes if I enlist is I go in as an e3. But I’m committed to being a career ff. Would you recommend at my age doing this enlisted route or just applying to my local fire departments? I also am entertaining the idea of being a civilian DoD firefighter so that I can still travel and be around the military bases with a retirement. Would love your honest opinion from what you have seen and heard!

What were you doing workout wise before BMT to prepare? I’m strong, a little scrawny, and am working out constantly trying to get stronger. What do you recommend?

Is there a graduation ceremony for tech school that family can attend? Also, where did you go for your first base

do you know what’s the process of becoming a civilian firefighter I’m doing this MOS but I’ll be in the reserves so Im wanting to become a civilian firefighter as well.

What did you score on the ASVAB and what was you’re job selection list? Did you want to do fire?

At the fire academy right now in EMR nervous for end of block and national registry. Also dummy drags

What happens if you fail fire tech school

What was the name of the gym that you went to?

So if I come in with all my certs already do you know how tech school will work for me?

From WA, are you stationed at JBLM? I'm just starting the process with my recruiter.

Anything wild regarding heights or claustrophobic situations?

Did y’all still have to run on that old crusty dusty flight line

What's the other choice if you don't do RAP? Can you go straight to your assignment?

Good day mam Kira, I would like to join USAF fire if I could have a greencard but my question is does having a previous firefighting experience or trainings help you to get into USAF fire protection? Thanks

Do you remember at what point during tec school you received your assignment?

How many months is the tech school total ?
