it says -

Fire brigade Minden
Löschzug (27 plus firemen that primarily put fires out as in attacking the fire ) City center

In Germany we are organised in to Gruppe that is 9 men
1 gruppenführer - leads the group
1 Maschinist - operates the pump and generator etc
1 Melder - Is the eyes and ears for the gruppe leader
2 Angriffstrupp - these are your primary 2 firefighters
2 Wassertrupp - These supply water to the fire ,to the pump and from the pump to the fire .
they also double up as the rescue troop if it all goes pair shaped
2 Schlauchtrupp - these support the angriff and
wassertrupp basically they are
multi purpose , they also get
special orders for example setting the foam cannon up .

A Zug is 3 gruppe so 27 men in the larger brigades as in the big citiesall 27 men will concentrate on one job while another Zug will concentrate on another .

Bye the way here is my shirt ;)

That would be a fine here !!! at least 2 crates of beer :ROFLMAO:

But I agree it's great to give the pump a work out !
We tried ours out last friday using water from the
mittellandkanal , got up to 1850 ltr per min at 15 bar ,
just for sh#ts and giggles tried a B HohlStrahlrohr

I nearly ended up as the rocket man !!!

We put a monitor 1C hoses and my troops B hose from the distributor and the pump was still up for giving more !!
wouldn't want to be on the end of that at 750 ltr for more than a few mins .

Really enjoyed my BA initial. I see you are on 300bar sets, we took delivery of new ones a few weeks ago. They replace 200 bar sets
Yes the instructors told us about those, not much range with 200bar! They said we've got it too easy;) find the BA lot more enjoyable than ladders&pumps

Please be carefull out there Gentlemen .

Serious accident this week , 9 firemen in hospital 4 serious flown to hospital by helicopter .



Fire brigade turned out to a combine fire , the drive lost control of his HLF after coming round a left hand bend ,went into the oncoming traffic and clipped two other cars before going off the road and rolling twice into a ditch .
It seems the 2000 ltr water played a part in causing the accident .

I can't say in the Ziegler appliances !
We have a Schlingmann and although there are some baffles in our tank still not enough .
Our problem is we have a all terain appliance with a very soft ride , not ideal for going flat out on country lanes .

The inquriy is running and I would think the priliminary results will be out on Monday .

We have to do blue light safety training once a year and the one thing that I would say is missing in this course is how to correct a vehicle once it starts rocking from side to side !
