The video below provides insight into water drafting and the process involved. You’ll notice the fire truck must be set to a specific gear with the pump engaged, and operators must monitor various dials to control the flow of water. Mastering this takes time—and even then, learning never truly ends.
Personally, I serve as a part-time firefighter when I can, and I enjoy being able to help out. Over the years, I’ve become familiar with most of the equipment and picked up a number of tactics along the way. It is a continuous learning process.
If you're interested in supporting a community-based fire department through a tax-deductible donation, feel free to message me. I’ll gladly connect you with the right people. Corporate donations for equipment are especially appreciated. Further, you should consider joining your local departments as most rural departments need good men and women.
