Other than bad truck work, hats off to BFD, they seemed to be business like and calm.

First, several members were viewed operating on the fire ground without use of a flash hood (at 1:25 and a little after the 8:00min mark). Second, attack line from truck company operating into area that had self vented while members are operating inside. Third, same truck company operating on the roof in moderate smoke conditions without BA use. These are just my observations..... Be safe, be smart, and you will go home....
