Navy Boot Camp: Firefighting
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- When fire breaks out onboard ship there is no calling 911. You can't leave and wait for the fire department to show up. Every Sailor onboard the ship is a firefighter and must know what to do when an emergency happens... join these Navy recruits as they learn this important skill.
I went through Navy firefighting school in 1975 in San Diego
Fantastic...live fire, no masks, every kind of fire you could deal with onboard ship.
Great realistic training to prepare you for what you may encounter at sea in the real Navy.

So would this be a good route to take if I would like to make firefighting my career in the civilian world?

Also the Airforce and Army firefighter training.
A friend was an Army fireman in Alaska, liked the area, and applied at nearby fire stations after discharge.
About 6 mo later he was hired.
Married a local girl and now a regular Alaskan!
CAN HAPPEN!
Don't step on the hose it a trick. In civilian world a live hose will cause a fail
What’s funny is I remember getting to A school in Pensacola, and we had to take a firefighting course there. The Petty officer said “fuck that training you did in boot, here’s how we are gonna do it now”
Glad to see they replaced the OBA. I guess some progress has happened in 20 years.
This was the most fun I had all during boot, aside from Battle Stations and graduating.
FFU was a BLAST in bootcamp. They weren't using the SCBA's shown here but the training itself was the same.
RELIEVE THE NOZZLEMAN!!!
RELIEVE THE NOZZLEMAN, AYE!
the egrees chamber was pretty cool. i was the first one in in my div and didnt know where to go tho LOL
If you ever hear of a story where someone sprayed the fire extinguisher the wrong way... It was me 😂😂😂. I was the first to go it was so unclear so i copied the direction of the instructor bahaha. Good times.
I dont remember using Back pack O2 tanks, they mustve started using these more recently , in the late 80s/ Early 90s when i was in and on the fire team on our ship, we used the OBAs ( the Front loading Cansiters) ,, when on the Enterprise, we used to go to the Fire Fighting team trainer in Norfolk that not only the military used but also the local fire depts also did for training ,, ( Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Suffolk , Portsmouth and others)
I have fond memories of this.
That looked way too easy. Ever don one of those old Canister OBAs?
Gosh I miss doing that.
I want to help people & prevent fires & any other dangers.
What does my ASVAB score need to be to get this job?
Vegito Red this is a year late but if your still interested your ASVAB score need to be above the 50% any lower and you only qualify for the Air Force and lower than 32% you don’t qualify for any branches of military etc
us navy 1 800 3 south doors in BUDs 6 % drown 59% pass drown test 7 in 4 out 3 pass Qualifications of the pool 16 feet deep
Navy swcc is what I'm hearing
would this be a good route to take for civilian firefighting
The Navy still Use 2.2 scott packs?
hell put them in a real burn box and lets see how long they can keep that fog nozzle open.lol
Im a future fire fighter too
is that dc2 steppers?
How long is fire school?
me too
@EyeSowwyMama Eh. It was alright...
door is coool! I know that person :-)
DC2 GARCIA!!
Do all recruits do this no matter what job theyre signed on for?
Yes. Everyone in the Navy takes basic shipboard firefighting.
Damage Control is a HUGE part of Navy training. If you don't train for it and something happened to your ship in combat and you don't know what actions to take, you're dead.
This became part of basic training after the USS Forrestal fire on 29 July 1967.
Yes, its a requirement for all Navy personel to learn how to fight fires on all Navy ships. All Navy rates & Officers do GQ training on a regular basis. Four years on ship or sub. 265 GQ FIRE FIGHTING DAYS A YEAR.
Absolutely.
I also did this with a real oil fire in a large circular tank in San Diego in 1971 and very basic equipment. Then we had to sit in a closed compartment filled with smoke from an oil fire and not panic and bolt for the door. Felt more realistic than this.
I didn't learn much fire fighting in boot camp, the fire fight place they had was where we had to travel by bus and go through a smoke filled compartment thing they called George! they had a mess hall there too and I was one of the many sailors to be picked to work there. I only learn more about fire fighting when I had to go to San Diego, and fight them at a place they use to call the Astrodome at the 32nd street Naval station in 1977
@808melz I was last and had to dog the doors. Then, I couldn't see in front of me so I just grabbed the person in front of me. Lol.
they'll never go to 4.5s..integrated pass, to expensive
I looooooved firefighting/dc
This was not the way we were instructed back in 69. These guys are so much better equiped than we were. Oh wel,l one would expect some improvement in over 40 years.
back in 1973 we had the OBA breathing aparatus
Ay, 69 💦
what do u have to complete to pilot the ship of take control pf the helm
Pass a surface warfare test
Have they replaced the OBA?
They started replacing them in 2001.
