    Firefighter Survival Techniques: From Prevention to Intervention delivers practical, hands-on techniques that firefighters can use for initial training or a quick refresher during drills. The video encompasses aggressive, real-world tactics that serve as an extra bonus to the video content. The modular format makes it easy for instructors to use the video in its entirety, or jump to specific sections. It makes a great supplement to any firefighter survival program!
