SA Firefighter General / Re: APPLIANCE NAMES

I have also done the same and have had the wrath of the incident controller for not responding. I have made comment I will discuss with them on return to station, to no avail they still use their own terminology of the appliance ;} :evil: :?

SA Firefighter General / APPLIANCE NAMES
« on: May 03, 2007, 11:34:31 PM »
Recently I have heard (1) appliance at an incident called xxxx24 then later xxx24p then later xxx24pumper at the same incident, I was confussed an I know that only one appliance had arrived on scene, maybe operaters should look at the side of their appliance and see what they are in???? the markings on the side of the unit is the call sign????

I await your wrath with open mind!!!

Elections have alway been a hot topic! I believe that all emergency services should adopt a more military approach to how promotion is gained (being ex military) a popularity vote does no always work. I think that we should nominate a persons at our level and the next step in the chain of command should interview and select the best qualified for the position. I have been in this situation and lost marginally as I went by the book (save a life, door knocks ruins life)
My opinion only

I believe that this will be rectified WHEN sacad is on line and all relevant services have had there input into this system, it is now down to brigades units and services to come on line and do their response plan as was requested to be done or in the process of being done to come in line at a very short time. I believe that SACAD will start to be used very soon. I know from 2 agencies of which I belong to that their is still some internal disagreement of who will respond and how! if not solved locally it will be escalated further up the line.
Units, brigades and divisions had better talk to their Captains,controllers superintendents etc, to have input. 
my opinion only and may not be relevant to the current topic but will cover most of recent topics
