Extinguishing the Flames

Airmen assigned to the Eielson Fire Department must go thought a rigorous 68 day training course and curriculum before becoming a certified firefighter. They must be skilled in a variety of tasks to include structural response, aircraft rescue and firefighting, hazardous material handling, emergency medical services and technical rescue. Upon graduation and assignment to their new base, they are tasked with completing a Fire & Emergency Services Developmental Program “Rookie Book” consisting of three parts; an oral board, writing assignments and a critical task list on basic firemanship.
