firefighting tools

We all know an empty handed firefighter is just a well dressed spectator. Firefighters should not get off the truck without a tool in their hand. In “Random Thoughts” Tom Brennan discussed the one tool firefighter. “I have to begin with one of my pet peeves a— the one tool firefighter. I hope this gone has gone the way of the ratchet door opener, the punch and chisel, the six pound axe and the like. There is no scenario in which on arrival you can choose one tool from the assortment and be productive and accomplish your goals for the entire firefighting operation.” If you haven’t read “Random Thoughts”, get a copy. Tom Brennan taught more in those pages than most instructors will teach in a lifetime. Carrying multiple tools, especially those that complement each other, like the Halligan and a flat-head axe and we become more functional as firefighters. But the tools we carry need to be based on how we plan on functioning at a particular incident.
