FireFighter Training -SCBA-
« on: May 04, 2012, 04:12:51 »
Hello  :wave:,

I decided to start some sort of photostory series of different types of training drills done by members of the rescue team. This will be the first chapter or episode how ever you may want to call it. Basically this episode will just teach about the SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus)

The very first pictyre shows the instructor, or Captain William, as well as the team's leader. The next pictures show the three members of the team that will demonstrate for us today, how to use the SCBA gear.

These pictures show the SCBA harness strapped on their backs.

Next, they are showing the air cylinders and where they go on the harness. If a crew member has difficulty attaching their air cylinders they might get help from another member of the team.

This last picture shows how the mask can be hooked onto the harness when not being used. The harness also has enough space for an extra small piece of equipment to be hooked on, such as an ax or flashlight.

Hope you liked my first training photostory. Soon more will come.   ;D
