Week 4 Paper
Firefighters have to make quick decisions on a fire scene. The decisions they make can mean the difference between being successful and unsuccessful.
After completing this week’s readings and conducting your research into this topic, write a paper that answers the following:
1. Discuss the actions firefighters can take to limit the spread of a structure fire? I want you to think about line choice, GPM’s, ventilation, offensive, and defensive attacks as well as any other relevant information.
2. Discuss the decisions a firefighter could make that would make a fire situation worse?
Be sure to base your information on facts and not opinion, and be sure that first person is not used in your paper.
