Quality video 👌. This seems like a fun dept. to work for. Everyone working hard, pitching in and just mutual respect all around . Would be curious to know about the hiring process.
100 deaths a YEAR?
Listening to the saws every morning would be worth it just to hear him play the bagpipes every once in a while 😁
NIce video for you guys. Hope you can do more of this quality, so many departments do long and drawn Public Service Announcements for the FS and not actual "non-scripted" videos. Kudos.
Just so others looking to get into the profession have an idea, this looks like a 24 hr shift, how many hours off do your firefighters get?
24 hours on , 48 hours off
Do yall send out patches for people who collect them?🤔
That was really cool to watch. Nice job everyone.
🔥
This was really good! More videos like this please!!!
Yeah I’m definitely getting into this type of job. Looking forward to become a fire medic one day. Love this documentary ❤
Nice work👍👍🍻 Firefighter from Sweden
3 man rescues are the new wave, glad to see other department putting this into place.
Three people on an ambulance? Is that normal there? We only have a third on board if there's a 3rd year university student paramedic doing their placement. Ordinarily it's just two paramedics per ambulance. EMT level isn't recognised nor legal here. Great video and insight.
Where, if I may ask?
Excellent video. Great spirit in your crew. Thanks.
Awesome video!
3 people on a medic unit how nice would that be
I love being a firefighter
Stay hydrated & keep doing what your doing.Thanks
Excelent vid. Thanks for your service
Could Kenosha Police Department or Kenosha County Sheriff Department do what of these videos
