Fellow Firefighters. I am finishing up the Structural Collapse Operations class. It is being taught by 2 members of the Pennsylvania Task Force -1 USAR. One of the instructors I have worked with in other classes. He is in the K-9 search part. I wish I could get my dog to behave that well. LOL What a class!!! They were both at ground zero. We have learned alot about operations at the Oklahoma City bombing, but when the subject turns to the WTC, it is shyed away from. (with every understandable reason to). We recently had a parking garage collapse in our mutual aid area. Luckily, not a single person was in the garage at the time. If you have an opportunity, I would highly recommend this class.
Stay safe
