Reading Assignment – June 28 2013

Here’s the list:

1. Halligan – streetsmart firefighter
   “Three articles about the most versatile tool in the fire service.  Take the time to get better every day.”
2. Choices –  Irons and Ladders
   “For all of the new guys, these are CHOICES. It is up to you!    We can tell which one you choose.”
3. The Most Important 6 Inches – Jason Jefferies, Fire Service Warrior
   From the FSW Archives:
   “Take a good hard look at your gear and how wear it into combat.  Screwdrivers, door chocks, webbing, and various other “add ons” are useful, but where we position the most important items that could save your life is one of the most important decisions you will make.”
4. MacGruber Bag – Gary Lane, Fire Service Warrior
   Another one from the FSW Archives:
   “This is just one way I’ve been able to stay in a “Warriors mindset” without over burdening myself with an extra 20 pounds of stuff in my pockets.”
