Lecture week again!~ This week had 3 days of fire safety lectures. Also, we had our fire badge ceremony on Monday. Swee! Finally can wear our fire badge, but that also means more responsiblity on us. We actually had to do a mini exercise on Wednesday but was cancelled as we need to do alot of other equipment stuffs. =p
Thursday had our introduction to PDV (Personnel Decon Vehicle), HDV (HazMat Decon Vehicle). Later in the afternoon, we were transported to Tuas Fire Station for further introduction to HP (HazMat Pod), HDP (HazMat Decon Pod), HSV (HazMat Support Vehicle) and VV (Ventilation Vehicle). Bookout quite late; around 18 30. We could leave CDA at an earlier time! tsk tsk... ...
Went for fire station attachment at Bishan Fire Station. I was with Rota 3 for my first day. They were nice people; they all were like friends regardless of their ranks. Only attended 1 fire call and 1 Alpha (Ambulance) call. Nothing much happening in that area. Only get to go home on the next morning 08 00 due to our 24 hours shift.
And we need to get back to the station before 20 00 on the very same day we signed out from the station. Practiced abit on my sliding pole, but was stopped by one of the encik there cause he didn't want to get into trouble if anything were to happen to us. =x We slept throughout the night. It was a peaceful night without hearing any alarm for fire call. No call is good news! =) We wanted to purchase the station's t-shirt but they ran out of stock and would only be available tommorow. Anyhow, went back home at 08 00 this morning.
Actually, station life isn't that bad afterall~ =p But the limiting factor is the sirs and enciks at the respective stations.
Countdown to POC - 4 MORE WEEKS!!!!
