I'm almost finished with my fire recruit academy at TEEX in College Station, Texas (a little over an hour outside of houston). It is comonly reffered to as one of the best firefighting training facilities in the world. We had our family night on Monday Nov. 9th and I couldnt help but take plenty of pics and video to show off while I wasn't "putting the wet stuff on the red stuff". The pictures you see below are on the refiniery props. We also did a rotation on the airplane prop but I primarily shot video on that one so I dont have any good photos to post.
Everyone enjoyed the evening and not to brag, but according to the instructors we did a great job, and the man running the fuel tower said that was one of the best jobs he had seen from a recruit class, so we we're pretty proud of ourselves. Most importantly though everyone was safe and our families got to see how crazy we really are for wanting to do this for a living!
Feel free to leave your comments, questions and critiques.
well, not to dissapoint, here is a shot i took from one of the day rotations on the airplane.
