This important new book is designed to serve many purposes in the fire service, ranging from being a starting point and refresher guide for firefighters seeking promotions at any level, to being a field operational guide for on-scene Incident Commanders and Company Officers. It offers an easy-to-follow, step-by-step action plan for firefighters working in Acting Capacities, and can be used when developing SOPís, and when organizing and planning training evolutions. Itís definitely a book every firefighter, officer, and aspiring officer will want to own! I have read a couple sample guidelines on Fire Engineerings forum and on fireopsonline.com. I like how they take complex topics and break them down to the simplest formats. As a volunteer firefighter, I couldnt imagine a book with more useful information. I cant wait to get my copy. -- Steve Weston Used Book in Good Condition
