Every month, in addition to the in-depth pieces you find in Fire Engineering‘s print magazine, we strive to bring you important training articles from some of the top instructors in the U.S. fire service. December was no exception, with Web-only features from Frank Ricci, P.J. Norwood, Danny Sheridan, Forest Reeder, and “Construction Concerns” bulletins from Greg Havel.
Starting in January 2015, many of these features will only be available through the Fire Engineering Training Network, which ensures access not only to our Web exclusives but also print and digital subscriptions to Fire Engineering magazine.
