At ComTac Training we believe that, as firefighters, you need to train like your life depends on it – because it does. Do all you can to reduce your chances of being involved in a Line of Duty Death.
More than 27,000 vaccinations have been given to the public by FRS staff, following amazing support for the national programme. This equals staff giving around 1 in 600 immunisations out of the 16.5 million given to date. #ReadyWillingAble 👏 💉

As my 30 year fire service career comes to an end, my daughter starts her journey as a brand new firefighter starting hers. In amongst the highs and lows that this role in society brings, this is the most precious high of all. Welcome to the thin red line firefighter 3182.
Training Tuesday: After last night's department wide training on forcible entry, the new recruits practiced an SCBA confidence and survival exercise.

Having done the same thing in my career several times. I hate to think we forget what and who we are there for. Thanks to the Captain who did the right thing and shame on the black and white leadership. Common sense must rule the day. #firefighter#fireservice#commonsense
Curbside pick up! @mcfrs@MontgomeryCoMD If you’re having trouble parting with your Christmas tree, here’s a fact to motivate you: One-third of U.S. home fires that begin with Christmas trees occur in January. A dry tree can engulf a home in minutes. https://t.co/3u7UVyNqKk
If you’re having trouble parting with your Christmas tree, here’s a fact to motivate you: 1/3 of U.S. home fires that begin with Christmas trees occur in January. Remove your tree as promptly as possible after the holidays. #WinterFireSafety
“Our members are being diagnosed with cancers as a result of on-the-job exposures. We have had the sad duty of adding far too many of their names to the walls of our fallen fire fighter memorial,” said #IAFF General President Harold Schaitberger. #FFCancerMonth#FightFFCancer
#Firefighters are more likely to be diagnosed with certain types of cancer than the general public. Look for targeted education about best practices and resources to reduce the impact of cancer on fire fighters throughout January. @fscnnational
