SPAM

what can you say some usefullness and some not, SPAM is split into two sections those involved get a debrief and those that may have been at the incident but not directly involved get a defuse, all participants are supposed to get a follow up call however, we recently involved SPAM in a job we had at which we had a defuse and a debrief, those of us that participated in the defuse recieved a phone call to see how we where going (although not directly affected) however those who were directly affected have as yet recieved nothing from SPAM. If spam is to work then the follow up is necessary part of the process...

I don't think that you can badge someone by how long they have been in the service fot people that have been in for 5 years may have more experience than someone who has been in for 20 years depending on the amount of training they do and the brigade they are in and whether or not they do things outside of brigade for state and regions. i think the best option is the labels on the helmets that burnside trialled and still have on their helmets whick is like BA for ba operator HAZ for hazmat operators etc and i think this is the path we need to follow not years of service
