#114 CFBT Non-Negotiable's & Shared Expectations with John McDonough Part 2 of 2

This is the second part of my conversation with John McDonough who has been a professional firefighter for 34 years with the Fire and Rescue New South Wales in Sydney Australia.

He is currently an operational Duty Commander in charge of 14 stations in the busy inner west zone of Sydney. He was Team Leader of the Fire Operational Training Team (FOTT). This team trains all firefighters and officers in structural fire behavior and firefighting techniques and tactics.

He is extremely passionate about the introduction of modern fire behavior-based firefighting techniques and tactics specifically developed to make the role of firefighters safer and more effective. 

Over the last 17 years, this has developed into a standardized doctrine for how firefighters act and behave at the task and tactical level. It is taught at all levels from recruit to Station Officer.

He is a co-author of ‘3D Firefighting – Training, Tactics and Techniques’, which is published in the USA by FPP / IFSTA. In 2009 he was awarded Australia’s highest honor for Fire Officers, the Australian Fire Service Medal for his work in structural firefighting training. He has a Certificate 4 in Training and Assessment and an Advanced Diploma in Management.

In this episode, we talk about the following areas:

• Eyre Massey Shaw's Complete Fire Manual of the organization, machinery, discipline & general working of the London Fire Brigade from 1876 PDF
