ABOUT
Anything from training articles to calls that we have gone on in my area, to issues going on in the fire service around the country. Whatever I feel as important. I would also like a place to record calls to be able to look back on in twenty years or so. This isn't just limited to firefighting as a first responder it will also be covering ems.

I went on a clinical once and my preceptor didn't know half of the shit that was in the bag and I, as an EMT student, seemed to know more than him. Pretty sad.

Yep, sometimes the best way to learn is to make mistakes, it tends to stick with you longer. Oh yeah I know a few of those too. It really applies to everyone, not just rookies.
