Hot Shots: Training - S400 Course, 2004, Redwood Meadows/Calgary
When you practice fighting fires, you dirty up some fire hose. And someone has to clean it..
These crews are learning about tanker shuttle operation. The yellow collapsible pool has just been filled with water from the tanker (at right). Shortly, the pumper (at left) will 'draft' or draw water from the pool to pump through its hoselines.
This firefighter demonstrates the proper 'leg lock' to use when working off a ladder, when you cannot hold onto it with your hands. In this position, he will remain securely on the ladder in most any working position.
