Richard Jones same with us here, well, career stations, it’s less common with career stations, to be able to fill with the same manpower for the entire department, but volunteer stations, any time another chief calls over asking for a fill, we oblige. I read about another career department that was out of service, they were filled by another department, but they only have a staffing of six. If our city to the south needed filled, that’s an average of four people per station, they have thirty stations.
I’m from the U.K. and a school I use to go to it’s science lab lit on fire and there was a gas explosion I live in the country side My small country side towns 2 trucks responded and then a city nearby sent 8 units So we share units
I just watched the Croation Fire Call Video where they were watching Soccor Game. It took them 24 seconds to gear up, and drove their trucks out.. moments before the game's penalty win. And here? I dunno.. lol
Soooo if your house was burning down with you and your loved ones trapped inside, you'd be happy knowing that they were "out of action" for a pitiful awards ceremony? I know they wouldn't be happy about it. I was awarded the Bravery Medal and the Australian Fire Service Medal on the same day and I ran out on the West Australian State Premier AND the Department of Fire and Emergency Services COMMISSIONER to go to a road crash rescue, where I saved a young mother while my Lieutenant, who also ran out of the ceremony, saved her child (sadly the father did not survive, though they were doing the right thing as he was sober and the mother was not). We don't do what we do for praise or awards, or even for recognition. We do it to save lives. I honestly don't like the idea of being given a medal, to me it's just a ribbon and a piece of metal. Whoopy Beans. Give a medal to the single-digit child who overcame cancer and a car crash at the same time. Give a medal to the man who pulled me out of a fire at great personal risk. Give a medal to the people that don't have training and experience in the work we do, but do it anyway.
@@mitchell1091 do you know what mutual aid or automatic aid is? You do realize hundreds of stations go out of service daily for things like fundraisers and going to schools and stuff. Believe it or not there are usually multiple units that can respond to you with pretty much the same response time. That was kind of a dumb comment.
@@michaelt.9372 Thinks work a little differently in Australia, asshat. But all the same, they were on station, ready to respond. Why put them out of service?
@@mitchell1091 so that stuff like this doesn't happen? Stations cover each other all the time. Sometimes its nice to have a ceremony without being interrupted.
I know people on Volunteer Fire Departments You sit down with your family For a Sunday dinner Pager goes off Grab your turn out gear And take off To the Fire House
I've had it where we got slammed so much, that we had to stop for fuel WHILE responding to a call, and while fueling up, got an additional call. LOL. (And, no, we went back later to pay for the fuel (a pre-arrangement with the gas station))
The joys of having a last name that starts with a letter towards the end of the alphabet, and always being last to walk across the stage for any ceremony. lol
Take a look at the women in the front row around 1:00. She has so much respect for the for herself, the awards ceremony and the firefighter/s she came to see honored she couldn't be bothered to put on a decent pair of pants. Way to go young lady. R.L.T.W./A.T.W 🇺🇸
Pretty relaxed response, hoisting your pants up three times. I've seen fire fighters leave within 30 seconds max ruclips.net/video/9M7GFyBrf0M/видео.html
Firefighter valor awards are only given to firefighters that go up and beyond and do everything they can to save another person's life without worrying about their own safety. The award usually isn't given to a firefighter unless they have risked their life going into a fully engulfed structure just to save a victim. any firefighter that hasn't come close to death won't receive an award. Firefighters valor awards are just like police valor awards or military valor awards , you only get them if you put your own life completely at risk just to rescue a down firefighter or trapped fire victim.
I don't know where the hell you're from ,that you have never heard of Valor Awards. This shit has been here forever. Maybe you need to do some productive work wherever it is that you fire fight ,and then you'll get recognized.

Plot twist: Award ceremony interrupts fire call
😏
It just gives a meaning to "Always Willing and Ready"
in the uk I know they have situations where other stations will at least partially cover some other areas if needed

Did anybody notice at the 2:08 mark that the guy wiped his face with his hand then shook the firefighter hand?
Ben Touchstone this is two years old it isn’t a big deal
CORONA
B.Sundae you bruh moment
It's BC (Before Covid)
That last fire fighter that got an award was a good man. He was the only one that looked happy
Well done, stay safe guys!
How did you comment if you’re a truck?
Congratulations Trenton Firefighters!👨🚒🚒🔥
I know people on Volunteer Fire Departments
You sit down with your family
For a Sunday dinner
Pager goes off
Grab your turn out gear
And take off
To the Fire House
now thats a real fire engine and truck no l.e.d lights and a real fed.Q not the computer
amen!
Oh yeah
Ok boomer
@@Peyton_rice08 Shut up squeaker, I'll have you know that I'm 15 and I share the commenter's thoughts!
Ocean1cbanana2 [AW2RE] did I ask
imagine a second call interrupted it again
Alright Next we'd like to congratulate *Alarm Rings* Well hold off until they return
I've had it where we got slammed so much, that we had to stop for fuel WHILE responding to a call, and while fueling up, got an additional call. LOL. (And, no, we went back later to pay for the fuel (a pre-arrangement with the gas station))
Still amazes me that they still putt around in that 1991 Maxim/Kovatch pumper with the Detroit in it. Though the lights and horns needs HELP!
Hey it happens and they responded. I just wonder how long it took to get out of their dress clothes, and into their fire fighting cloths.👍😁😎
The members being honored were probably scheduled off, or had people covering them so they were off that day
emt5330 That’s the way it’s done in the military on your day off you have to come and get dressed up to be honored a great day off.👍😁😎
Hey they still have a job to do
That would suck but thank you for their service
The joys of having a last name that starts with a letter towards the end of the alphabet, and always being last to walk across the stage for any ceremony. lol
Good point lol they should make it random for those poor souls named Mr. Xylos
@@bodhi8260Or Zacks
1:00
That woman is gorgeous. The man got a nice one
Love you all. Stay safe.
How it goes, right?
*ritual interrupted*
Where i live it takes them about an hour to response cause they have to fill up on fuel and water first 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fire waits for no one
2:24 is that an fdny truck?
Is the girl wearing the black heels single?
Same thing I was thinking, lol she is a badidie
a catch huh
Ya The fire house is done they should’ve took it out of service

You call they haul.
Too much drama tbh
Man why can't people roast in peace smh

I’m sorry but Valour awards? I’m a firefighter and never have heard of this! It’s called a job. It’s expected! I don’t get why it’s necessary.
It's not necessary, but why put it down? My Dept. doesn't do awards typically, but I don't see a problem with it.
@@tewksburydriver8624 Fully agree. A pat on the back for a job well done, feels good and might encourage even better performance.
First off, thank you, second, If policemen get medals why shouldn't you?
Firefighter valor awards are only given to firefighters that go up and beyond and do everything they can to save another person's life without worrying about their own safety. The award usually isn't given to a firefighter unless they have risked their life going into a fully engulfed structure just to save a victim. any firefighter that hasn't come close to death won't receive an award.
