Having a from the ground up knowledge of your hoslines & nozzles is as important as how you stretch & advance through buildings. Knowing not only how, but why, will make your line work, smooth, efficient & effective. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020 #artoffiremanshipdays2020

While the act of deploying a RIT team is largely reactive, training, planning & discussing potential is critical. Lack of imagination has been cited in failures throughout history. Don’t let that be a factor on your fireground ops. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020

TOMORROW IS THE DAY!! Registration opens Monday, February 17th at 09:00. Don’t miss out!! Secure your spot! The registration link will appear on the main page of our website, the link to that is in our profile. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020 #harrisburg #itseasywhenyouloveit

Tight alleyways, fences, multiple victims, fire, smoke, screaming family members. That’s not the time to figure out how you’re going to throw your ladders. It just has to happen. The only way it will happen is to plan head & drill. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020

Experience, confidence and outside the box thinking, along with an aggressive mindset are a must for engine companies to make the stretches needed. No two fires are the same. No two obstacles are the same. No two buildings are the same. Be ready. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020

Chaos is our norm. Bringing it under control our art. It doesn’t happen if you don’t educate, plan & develop teams to work together under a well thought out set of guidelines. This is dangerous work. Strong fireground leadership helps make it safer. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020

Fires can be incredibly complex and challenging. They can be overwhelming. The basics, proven over years and years of combatting fires will help you win the day. The more complex the incident, the more the basics will prove invaluable. #aofd2020 #firemanshipdays2020 #harrisburg

All who are in charge are not leaders. Leadership is not a capability you are just born with. It is a skill set that is honed overtime through life experience, education, training & practice. It is rooted in humility & service. #aofd2020

Capt Isaac Neutron Tweet of the year

Action gets results. Take ownership in your life and stop blaming your environment for inaction. Your work will create a new adventure not your environment. You are the driver of how you progress, change or improve. You alone provoke the reactions that leads to results.

My friends, I am sick and tired of having people tell me that I have to do more with less. Folks, the only thing that any of us can do with less, is less.
