Fire Training Pictures



We have training about 4 times per month. Tonight we practiced putting on our air tanks. I am a bit claustrophobic so this kind of freaks me out. It is good to practice so that when we get to a scene, we can put our packs on fast. The key is to stay calm and breathe.

You GO Girl! The claustrophobic thingy reminds me of a guy, on Alex's basic training video, who when they went into the gas chamber freaked out and couldn't put his mask on. He totally freaked out. I cried for him. It was awful. Love ya, Sandy

You look so cute in your outfit! I can totally understand the mask problem. Geana was telling me that when they gave her a C section they tied her arms down and put a mask on her. I could not breathe thinking about it. Keep up the good work! Love ya, Cammy

Ahh! I wouldn't be able to do it, too claustraphobic. I had to be mildly sedated for just an MRI, so yeah, wearing that mask around wouldn't be fun. But good on you for doing it! LOL

You look cute there! I think I would freak out too. You know I dont even do so great at Cracker Barrel on Sunday mornings b/c of the crowds.
