FIRE SCHOOL

For the past 2 months, I've had an awesome time during fire school. This is my last week of fire school and then I'll officially be a Firefighter/Paramedic or a FireMedic!! Here's some pictures of things I've gotten to do during school.

This is a car we got to use from the Columbus Police Impound Lot. The idea behind this class is to help trapped patients in a car. I got to use the "Jaws of Life" and different saws and tools to rip this car apart!

This is how we found it.

Here's how we left it!

Yesterday, I got to do my live burn. We went to the Ohio Fire Academy to use their burn building. We advanced a hose line into a building and put the fire out. The Ceiling temperture was roughly around 1000 degrees and the floor temp (where I was crawling around) was between 300-400 degrees!

Here's my Engine Company and our instructors

Dad & Sean came down to go to the Irish Festival as well as Mr. & Mrs. DeCapite (Bert and Shelby if you will) and we all had a great time! We loved the Geico Geko so much that we practiced our Judo on him...lucky little guy! :)

Fire School

I just wanted to give an update. I'm into my 3rd week of fire school and its going good. I had to bring my gear home, so here is a picture of me with my Turnout pants/coat, SCBA(air tank/mask), and helmet. All together, the gear weighs about 50 pounds. PS. Primo doesn' t approve of my gear, he kept barking at me.

Toran loves GREAT grandpa Dario
