OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
A few years back, Frank Leeb put together a list of things probies need to know when they start work. Then he realized the items on the list are actually important for firefighters to keep in mind for their whole careers.
Today, I’m talking with Frank about some of the rules or virtues on the list and how he came up with them.
Frank was a 30+ year veteran of the FDNY when he retired in 2024. He served in several staff positions, including chief of the fire academy, chief of training, and chief of safety. He's currently a member of the East Farmingdale, NY, Volunteer Fire Department, where he's been since 1983.

adder work is one of the most basic parts of firefighting.
But basic does not always mean simple.
There is a lot of technique involved in throwing, carrying, and placing a ladder correctly.
And small decisions can have a big impact on how well that ladder works when it matters.
Today, we’re looking…
Today, we’re diving deep into fireground operations and functional strategy. Our focus is on how departments can adapt when dedicated truck companies are not available.
