Fire OPs 101

Emeryville Vice Mayor Kurt Brinkman and Councilwoman Nora Davis

Intrepid's very own Kurt Brinkman recently took part in the Alameda County Fire Department's Fire Ops 101. Fire Ops 101 gives public leaders the opportunity to step into the boots of a firefighter for a day.

During FireOps 101, Kurt experienced what it was like to wear the gear of a firefighter and participate in "hands-on" training scenarios like ladder operations, using the jaws of life for automobile extraction, and live fire fighting scenarios. 

Good job, Kurt!
