tanker fire

 

I spent a few days at Disaster City the Training Center at Texas A&M.  Fortunately my time was in an air-conditioned classroom.  Pity the poor firefighters practicing putting out tanker fires -- wearing about 70 pounds of bunker gear in 90 degree weather with high humidity!  Disaster City students range from volunteer firefighters to oil company professionals.  This week included adjunct instructors for the Medical Countermeasures planning and response course (including me!)
