NFPA 1410 Engine Company Drills Summary

By Forest Reeder

This week we have a chart containing a summary of the 13 engine company drills published in previous drill columns. This will help you determine which drills you can use to simulate different methods of water supply and initial fire attack.

This series is based on NFPA 1410 Training for Initial Emergency Scene Operations and is designed to give the department a training reference to improve your ability to complete initial attack operations.

With the upcoming FF Standown theme of “Ready to Respond”, these are great templates for you to improve your companies ability to be Ready to Respond!
