Skips Scats - Welcome

Welcome,

I am Skip Coleman, Asst. Chief of the Toledo Fire Department and Technical Editor for Fire Engineering. Hope your summer has begun well and uneventful. I want to thank Peter Prochilo and the other heads of Fire Engineering for giving me this opportunity to occasionally discuss "stuff" with you.

I hope to present you with some nuggets and thought provoking questions that hopefully will make us all better at our professions. I plan to throw out some questions on current events and also to delve into tactics and strategy for the first responders.

I have to cut this first "welcome to my world" blog short.
The boys from NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) are in Toledo to conduct more positive pressure tests. Chiefs from FDNY and Chicago are observing as well as photographers from the Discovery Channel. I will discuss what exactly they are doing and what they found over the next few weeks.

Talk to you soon,
Skip
