This class reinforces the need for a return to basic training in the day-to-day demands of the response companies with a focus on the lessons learned from case studies, modern scientific research, line-of-duty deaths, and investigative reports for tactical operations deployment and survival. It will help firefighters and officers bridge the gap between operational deficiencies and training and safety. Students are challenged by an introspection of self and department, analyzing why they still have the same issues as before.
