Are you prepared to motivate the unmotivated? Do you know how? Is morale low in your organization? Do you ask why? As officers you need to know how to deal with personnel issues. Being an effective officer is more than blowing the horn and siren. You must know how to lead people

Question, what would be considered the "special forces" of the fire services, and why?

R.I.T group. HazMat Techs. High angle rescue. Truck crews. Engine crews. Rescue Rigs. Or is there different special teams i missed. Please retweet with opinions

In my opinion i think it would be a HazMat tech team, reasons would be the overall knowledge and skill one must have, in all of the forementioned teams to really be good at the tech level

The chemical attacks in syria are inhuman to say the least. But as first responders here in the U.S.A. what would we do and how would we respond? Just something to think about.
