    Having an intake connection on the front bumper is amazing. The ability to draft that way looks like it makes positioning so much simpler when necessary.

    I laughed so hard at the part where tanker 21 started almost running people over and then the guys couldn’t get the water to work and started dumping water in the street. Most hihfty shit i ever seen 😂

    Water supply still needs to have their basic PPE on and the white t-shirt dude needs to remain calm and not push people out of the way.

    I must say. I've been at firefighter paramedic since 98 in a large city. Where there were 50 stations. Not much rural area.. we've never had a call from mutual aid. I've only seen tanker ops twice. One in the Australia woods fires. The other was in Indonesia during USAR ops. Neither was as well rehearsed as this.

    Typical rural water supply operation. Engine unable to prime for an extended period of time; the 2nd tanker almost backs over ppl trying to get into position; dumping water onto the street out the wrong Shute (and goes unnoticed for 100 gallons), but, it’s a pretty normal operation in real-world rural water supply ops. Lack of quality training is the only issue here. It’s hard to stay current in a rural volunteer setting. It’s like “50 first dates” on many of these calls. Like crews have never seen the stuff before, but it’s the system that’s at fault typically, not necessarily the individual players. It was a defensive fire thankfully. These mistakes are much more tolerable in a defensive posture. When crews are working inside, these mistakes are costly. I wish I could help these folks get better. They just need a little help.

      They need another hour in the day to fit into their already busy and stressed lives. I am Captain at my local volunteer station and we have a great team, but when it’s impossible to train daily, it’s hard to be competitive to paid squads. If only every volunteer department had a clone machine

    Guy in the plaid is diminished function. Make him the safety observer, he ran the dump tank dry and had engine 20 calling for water. SAFTEY HAZARD. He was wandering aimlessly and when he did jump in he delayed everything.

      Never seen a handcrank but many of the rural departments don't get funding on equipment. They have to use what they got along with what manpower is available. If it happens to be WWI technology and a troop of Brownies its still better than no response
