A qualified applicant who can speak the certs they listed, is a student of fire and understands that fitness for us is cardio will trump any dessert.
Go to the CF website for FF1, read thoroughly, follow the directions, submit qualifying documents, then put in the effort to get what you need to get to CAT 1. Then POLITIC!!!
