Quiz time! The answers provided are very generalized. It is up to you to review each of the questions with your friends and or shift mates in further detail. As an example, many people believe that the acronym provided is outdated, however I would encourage you to study it for what its worth. No one is expecting any firefighter, regardless of rank, to rattle off each of the 13 bullet points when they arrive on the scene. Regardless, Ill repeat the words of our friend, Dave Leblanc, who could not have said it better. The more we practice and make the skills we do become second nature or muscle memory, the more we can take can take in as we approach the job. If you have to think about stretching or laddering, then you lose the ability to process what is in front of you. The picture provided on the quiz serves no purpose other than to illustrate the importance of sizing-up the situation. That being said, its relevance can not be underestimated. Every action is dependent on someone elses and it is imperative that the fire ground be a well-orchestrated team concept in which everyone owns a piece of the pie.-The Truck
