Answer 1

Answer 2

can i have the ten points anyway, my dads a fireman

Answer 3

If its a blowing and a going the the least of my worry is the door.  A Axe head to break the glass then once the doors are open I will use wedges to hold it open.

Now I know there is a tool used for this but I am not going to wait for the probie to go back to the truck and get it.

Ouch sounds like someone had the chief bite a little tail this morning.

1st- How does breaking out glass and holding the door open with wedges compromise your egress?  Matter a fact it helps.

2nd- It must be nice to have more then a three man crew making first on scene entry so you have personnel to carry all these tools you are talking about.  A Axe is a forcible entry tool and a very good one if used right.

Now sorry if I didn't read your little question correctly but had I come up on your scene as you described, bells would have gone off.

Now have a good day and stay out of the C-1 office
