Humpday Hangout: Modern Fire Attack

Fire Engineering/YouTube

Does your fire department permit/encourage engine companies to initiate fire attack with tank water and rely on a subsequent arriving engine to lay in a supply line? Under what conditions is a fast attack with tank water without first laying in a supply line permitted? On this week’s Humpday Hangout, Mike Dugan, Daryl Liggins, and Bobby Halton talk to Phil Jose and Dennis LeGear about their article on fire attack and engine and water supply operations.

Join us live on Fire Engineering’s Facebook at 1 p.m. Eastern on May 12, 2021, or watch this space for the discussion.
