Fire Fighter Tools.

Abstract

The Civil and Environmental Engineering Development Office (CEEDO) conducted an evaluation of aircraft crash rescue/fire fighters tools and equipment. This study was necessitated due to the continued growth and development of new tools and the ever increasing numbers of tools being acquired by Air Force Fire Protection Organizations. The purpose of the study was to verify the concepts for fire fighting and rescue operations; to identify the tools and equipment presently carried on fire fighting and rescue vehicles; to determine the usefulness of all inventoried tools and equipment; and to determine a basic selection of tools and equipment that should be carried on fire fighting and rescue vehicles.
