Get Trucked Up *LIVE FIRE*

Truck companies are tasked with a wide variety of jobs at a fire. All of which are essential to a successful outcome on the fireground. Yet many fire departments work with a limited number of truck companies on these incidents, or none at all. Truck work is about the skills, not the vehicle. Whether you operate with or without a Ladder Truck, truck work must be performed. In this course, we will approach Truck work AGGRESSIVLEY. Our focus is VES! I know, I know! We were all taught truck company functions breakdown into L.O.V.E.R.S.U. Come see what it’s really all about. This class will cover riding and tool assignments, the inside and outside team concepts, and essentials of truck work. Our instructors will bring you their “down and dirty” skills, which have been used over and over again in the real world. By the end of the day, students will force doors, perform searches, remove victims, and control fire using a water can, all which are truck company essentials. Everyone wants to talk about THEM first. The responsibility belongs to all of us. SO DON’T SCREW IT UP!
