This is dope. I’m gonna become a fireman after I finish college
You should it is a very fun job i wouldn't want any other job in the world
Jushua Spada what about being a pilot?.?
@@airborne8897 being a pilot is also a very cool job
Stop wasting your money in college lol because you won’t ever make enough money to pay those loans back lol Good luck it’s an awesome job
Josh Stafford first of all it’s not college some are but usually you call it flight school second it depends if you will make enough money you start off regional you will earn less but when the seniority gets up the pay is also good and the thing is that airlines pays for accomodations and food so all you need to worry about is paying off those loans then you start majors which is flying to another country which the pay is quite high, you will have money to pay it off but it just take time,It’s called students loan. And who cares if you make less money all pilot I have met says that they are flying because it’s their passion and they say if you are going to do for money you are in the wrong place, So yes you will have money to pay off those loans ..
when you have academy in 7 hours but you wanna finish this video👁👄👁
Thats love and support right there hahaa🙏🏽
Lol
Its a mood
Love that you have that connection with God. Mine could be better. God bless and be safe!
Thanks for the cool insight. I’m a volunteer “wildfire” firefighter in Australia. In our rural area we only have volunteer brigades and NO structural training or gear. Still blows my mind given our population is elderly and young families. Thankfully at least my state has the best burn over protection. It’s nice looking at all your shiny gear lol. Pretty sure a cat got in and crapped in our bathroom last week haha. Different worlds for sure!
Thanks for your help 😁
Man this is so cool. You’re living a lot of people’s dreams. Hopefully one day I can be half the man y’all are and join the department
Thank you for your service brotha. Stay safe God bless.
I cant wait to do this in about 4 to 5 years when I finish high-school and USAF basic! I cant wait!
Keep up the good work, and thank you for your service you have made the world proud stay safe ❤️
When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened. I envy you guys
This channel convinced me to go fire protection instead of security forces. Y'all's shifts are awesome and the job looks a lot more fun that working the gate 😂.
I accidentally stumbled on this video and never knew that military firefighters were a thing! You're doing great work and making some fire videos.
Just a little over 6 years in the National Guard as a firefighter. As of right now, we aren't a responding department but full time is coming. Our main mission is US&R and have swift water capabilities. With swift water we have, 2 RIT crafts, 2 inflatables with 30hp motors, and a 1660 John boat with a 40hp
i was saved by a firefighter when i was 11 years old YOU GUYS ARE THE TRUE HEROES OF SOCIETY 👍
🙏🏽 Wow that's an amazing story to share
Thank you so much for making this!! Awesome for planning my future & just to see the work you guys do!
Thank you for watching! glad you enjoyed the video
great vid i’m looking into going into the same job once i finish’s up senior year
Such a great channel bro, this is exactly what I wanna do and all of this confirms it
Hey at least you didn't get why not Minot lol
Enjoy your chill spot, no action area. I took it for granted how nothing ever really happened.
I'm a civilian firefighter and just wanted to say I appreciate you guys
Appreciate you guys just as much man
Would leaving the Air Force from fire protection make it very likely for you to get hired as a civilian firefighter?
@@Joey9in4you yes. You get ALL of the certs needed. Hazmat, firefighting 1 and 2, EMT, etc. So you can go to any non civil service department, apply, and you're basically in especially with that military experience. If it is civil service, take the test and score high. You'll get a call, and literally the same thing.
@@ralphmesidor9361 Wtf, "firefighting" in the Army is your basic Army BS. Those whom were in know. if I knew Air Force firefighting is legit firefighting at a department and all, I would've done that... Goddammit! 😂😂😂🤦🏻♂️
@@Joey9in4you obviously, you need to interview and be a top candidate. Get some schooling in fire science or something related whilst in the military. Do whatever you can to make yourself STAND OUT! And then just be the person they're looking for, and you're good. If you go firefighter in the military to help you out, do it in the Air Force, NOT the Army! I'm a firefighter in the Army. If you actually respond, I'll tell you how different they truly are from one another. Any other questions, just ask.
I'm jus amazed, Wow hats off to you guys. Heroes till the end. My brother is 5 and that's all he talks about being a firefighter
I'm a volunteer firefighter in Salisbury NC I've been doing it for almost 9 yrs now I enjoy helping people and my community
Thank you for sharing this, my dream job is a firefighter I have about 9 years to be able to apply and 1 year of classes. I appreciate this so much! ❤
Joining up this is what I’m tryna do appreciate these videos bro 🙏🏾
I noticed you were playing oceans by hillsong United. Let's go! JESUS IS KING!!
Great video!!! You truly use your time wisely. Keep it up! 👍🏾
Thank youu😁🤍
This is one of my picks, currently in the enlistment process.
im a firefighter girlfriend so this video was extremely helpful and interesting thank you for sharing!!
Happy to be the 1,000th like. Well put together video and very informational. Nice video.
Great job guys. Thank you all for your service. Keep it up!
Thank you✊🏾❤️
I’m retraining out of SF after 4 years of doing it into fire. I was at FE for my first 2 years and my wife and I actually really enjoyed it so im gonna try and get back to FE as fire. This was SUPER nice to see.
This is awesome man! Questions though, how many calls do y’all normally run? I’m assuming you guys are on a base, do y’all run mutual aid to surrounding city’s or towns if they request?
Loved watching this video...brought back so many good memories! Met and married my firefighter husband when he was a senior airman at Nellis AFB in Vegas. He flew in to work for every shift to Tonopah test range, home of the then secret F-117A stealth fighter jet (yes, this was a long time ago LOL...1992). We have lived in Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, McChord AFB, WA, Travis AFB, CA, and Peterson AFB, CO where he retired as a Senior Master Sergeant after 24 years in what he calls (and I agree) the best job in the world :) Two things we could always count on were scraping ice off of our cars (except in Calif.) and celebrating many holiday dinners at the fire station when he had to work. The guys that my hubby worked with at the station and their families were our families too ❤ We wives supported and helped each other with taking care of our kids when deployments came (or TDY's as I remember them being called). I was then, and still am, so proud to be the wife of a AF veteran! Keep doing a great job, get that degree and be strong in your faith and nothing can stop you! God bless you and thank you for your service :) BTW, you are adorable (tee hee).
Wow, amazing journey you had as an AF wife. Thank you for your service as well and your husband. Thank you for the kindest of comments on this post. Glad you enjoyed and thank you again for the nice words :) God bless!
@@ralphmesidor9361people keep being mean to me what should I do 0:21
Wow ! This is so cool and have opened my eyes . Was hoping to get into the navy and backup plan to become a civilian Firefighter and never knew that the Air Force fire fighting that is similar to civilian fire fighting . I would love more info please ☺️ how do you think that it may be different or the same to a civilian firefighter?
That was cool. That is what I missed out on when I was disqualified from serving
Hey man I just wanted to thank you for your videos! I just got to Goodfellow last week!
Thank you for watching and supporting brother✊🏾
Just recently found your channel. I’ve lived in Cheyenne my whole life. I’ve probably seen you around town. Hopefully get to go to basic soon, rona has slowed things up but I’m going into fire protection.
Small world. Thats dope. Glad you got the job and thanks for watching!
11 and all 7
Do you military firefighters get deployed_ also no dislikes good job man
Thank you 🙏🏽 And yes we absolutely do get deployed
Torian Lewis when they get deployed, they are not usually on patrols or recon missions or nothing like that they are there to put out any fires on the base especially the flight line. That being said, they are issued weapons and if the base ever fell under attack, you do what you gotta do
@Torian Lewis ofc brotha🇺🇸💯 best of luck to you bro
Lots of over sea firefighting jobs in war zones and military bases are contracted too . Pays pretty good .
Josh Stafford thanks
Proud father
Gotta make sure your monitor is working from all that rust it accumulates, running no fires. Keep up the work.
This is inspiring! I’m 33 and in transition and considering going into the Air Force for firefighter! Thank you.
Do you become an emt also?!
I love that you prayed before work…. Especially since my son is there, too. I mean, working with you.
Who is your son? And thank you
@@ralphmesidor9361 McClure
This will be my favorite place when i become a firefighter THE GYM🥱😅😅 working out is tGOOD
This looks complicated but maybe I’ll learn more since I’m just in 8th
I’m going into 7th and I watch these to try to learn a little about it so I can do it
As a junior who’s been in our cadet program up in Seattle, the older you get the more you understand. Once you get into high school make sure you look for some programs for ems and Fire 👍🏾
Im going into 8th this year also!
Try finding out if any departments in your area have explorer/cadet programs
Same
Nice video sir. I'm a young volunteer firefighter from philippines. I just want to ask where do your old fire gears go? I wish I have fire gears just like what you use. ☺️
I was a 57150 at RAF Alconbury and Myrtle Beach AFB. Went to school at Chanute. Yep, thats how old I am. Drove P4 in England.
The GOAT uploaded 😳😳
🙏🏽
Nice video. I’m. Career FF/medic up in Indiana. I do have a question, I use the same radio strap that you have. Where did you get the small patch on the shoulder with your number on it?
This is awesome man, I can't wait till I go to basic! USAF!!!
Good luck bro
love the “ oceans “ on the playlist !
🙏🏽thank you
Just looks awesome not going to lie
Me soon as I saw you: yeah you definitely look like a fire fighter
Dayum yall got some nice ass rigs
What’s the staffing like on a regular day? How many pieces do you run? Looks like a great station to work at.
May God be with you and your team of firefighters!
🙏🏽
No problem my uncle died last year during a multi-story structure fire
@@ralphmesidor9361 My uncle died last year during a multi-story structure fire 😭
This is what I want a career in, living the dream
hey man, great vid! Are you planning on becoming a residential firefighter after the military? That's what I want to do
definitely on the back of my mind
Become a paramedic you can get a FF job just about anywhere. I was hired at DCFD months after applying, I have friend who are not medics that have been waiting over 3 years and never got a call back after the test
Your homies face at 9:09 🤣
🔥🔥
Good call on changing the music when you were starting your workout! Oceans is a great song. But it definitely isn’t workout music!!
Love the videos man and do you mind dropping that playlist
Thank you bro🙏🏽 how i move by flipp dinero is the only one i could remember right now
Ralph Mesidor yea thanks man looking forward to more vids
Do y’all ever work with other non military fire departments? Like do y’all get called off base for mutual aid? Great vid tho!
Absolutely. We have a mutual aid agreement with our city and run a lot of mutual aids.
I want to become a firefighter when I am older, just a question, how old do I have to be to do a ride-along?
I was trained as an Air Force firefighter back in 1970 and it seems to me like you guys are actually trained as firefighters, I feel that my 6 week training that I received did not really Train me as a firefighter, But just a man that rode in a red truck and drug a hose Good luck to all
I hear Oceans from Hillsong in the Background! Nice One ;) GBY
GBY as well 🙏🏽
Thinking about going active. Graduated from Goodfellow 14 April 2020 but I’m just reserves. Curious as to where I would be stationed if I chose to go active.
i wanna be a firefighter or a paramedic when i grow up, you guys are cool
Thank you and keep chasing that dream
As a former vol firefighter I know about taking from lakes but I never heard of pools I would think that would mess up the pump if you draw from a pool
❤
My Dad is a firefighter and I’m a EMT
I hope to see another day in the life video
this was ssoooooo cool!!
Plan on joining soon to become a airforce fireman
This is my dream job. I’m looking at getting into it as soon as I turn 18!
Hope you do man, Good luck. keep pushing
Did you say what the green bag was that is on top of your structure gear?
That’s my baby!!! Another great video 🤩
Thank you babe
I'm looking to join after I get my F1 and I'm already and EMT. Is there potential to go to extra schooling like say for paramedic?
A friend of mine said I'd probably get a decent following just making videos of what goes on around the station and whatnot.
On average how many calls for service do you get per shift??
The pay is the same like all MOS in the military? Only you get more pay by rank and years? Greetings
I’m 15 and I want to graduate by 25 and work till in 60 or 70 years old and I’m doing a ride along soon with my moms firefighter friend
“Friend” 😏
@@GeorgeWBush01 President Bush how are you?
I just found your channel today. This is my first video I’m watching of yours. What do firefighter k9s do? I’m just wondering but either way they are very good puppers
Glad you found the channel. To be honest im not sure what they do. We don't have them
@@ralphmesidor9361 😂 oh. Either way it’s pretty cool that you’re able to do what you do!
Greetings from Serbian firefighter!
Do you guys run medical calls? If so how's that work? Are they Paramedic Engines that run with ALS/BLS Ambulances? Are the ambulances through Fire Protection or are they private company ambulances like AMR?
Is their room for upward mobility in this field for someone looking to do 20+ years in the USAF?
How well does this job transfer into civilian Fire Service? Does USAF experience made civilian fire services hire basically instantly or are you still on par with other Civilian fire applicants?
Majority of our calls are medicals. We don't run our own paramedic unit on base but we have emt's and up to advanced emt's at our department.
There is room for upward mobility for sure;
Lastly this job transfers well into DOD firefighting. I know a few guys that got out and landed jobs at other bases or bases close to home as a GS firefighter. One of my boys even got GS-6 spot with the army back in his home state. GS-6 because he got out as an E4 and didn't have emt at the time.
So say I want to be a in civilian law enforcement when out of the Air Force but I do not want to pursue security forces In The Air Force instead I want to pursue fire protection do you think tht would affect my civilian dream of being in law enforcement after the Air Force or will being in fire protection still boost my chances ?
A big hello from the Fort Washington Fire Company No.1 THE FIGHTING 88!
Hello back to you guys 🔥✊🏾
Ralph Mesidor what airfield are you at
@@irish_saltdog8891 Im at FE Warren AFB. We don't have a flight line
Ralph Mesidor cool my cousin is at Herbert airbase in Florida he is also a fire fighter in the airforce
Correction I spelled it wrong he is at hulburt field
Seems pretty fun and I plan on doing it but my biggest fear is all the buttons you got on the truck
Its a lot of buttons but man you learn it all so quick and 50% of the time I only use a few of the same buttons
Is it harder to be FD in the military, I mean ofc it is the military but is the training in the FD different in the military V.S the Civ.
What kind of hose loads do y’all use? We use a min man lay on RFD.
We use triple load
I honestly love triple layer loads rather than the minuteman load, but obviously both loads are useful for certain situations. My company has a flat lay for our 2.5 and triple for our other two 1.75 lines. I’m a small guy so I’m not the best with hand lines but we all have our weaknesses and faults. That’s why we train and train. Stay safe out there my guy. 💪
Hey I was just wondering how often do you guys get called out?
Hey man. I’m currently a Damage Controlman looking to transfer to airforce after my contract. Is this 3E7X1?
TYFYS
Who decides who drives? Also if you are part of the army let’s say a welder are you still like the people are carrying weapons and go to the front lines?
Hey bro do you have time to lift at all ?
did you guys go to college or school to become a firefighter?
Was stationed at Warren 06-2014 as a firefighter. Looks like you all finally got a new station. I remember the old station 2 inside the heli ops building and the old HQ. It’s too bad to see you guys still don’t have real fire helmets ?
Aw man I know about the old stations. We needed this upgrade bad. We actually just moved into this station end of 2019. And those helmets... I get clowned every time for those helmets when I TDY or something. We need real helmets also lol
@@ralphmesidor9361 most all the rigs seem to be the same though use to spend most my time crew’n rescue
Do you guys not wear the new OCPs?
Is that playlist public I wanna check it out
German Quality Car ftw :D
what is easier, fire department or security forces?
Greetings from Cheyenne 153d Fire.
Do all firefighters have to drive the truck at some point or can you choose not to?
Everyone has to eventually. You train to become a driver then eventually a crew chief. If you seriously dont want to drive the trucks then im sure you can bring that up to your leadership as to why 🤷🏾♂️
Driving a red truck with lights and siren, why would you not want too?
