#337 National Breathing Apparatus Challenge 2024 Part 2 of 2 The Debrief
Today were closing up with part 2 of 2 from this years NBAC as I sat down after the competition with some of the organizers Mark Andrews & Phill Sanders.
The National Breathing Apparatus Challenge is an extraordinary event that highlights the relentless pursuit of excellence, safety, and best practices within the UK Fire and Rescue Services and brings together firefighters from across the UK to test their skills, teamwork, and knowledge in real-world firefighting scenarios.
Each year, teams of five firefighters from different brigades battle it out for the title of Best Breathing Apparatus Team. Their challenge? To navigate the intensity of a property fire, with just 30 minutes to extinguish the flames and rescue casualties.
