Description
Fire Service Exploring is a program offered by Learning for Life that introduces major aspects of the fire service to young adults ages 15-21, or in the ninth grade. Once enough training has been acquired, Explorers can be allowed on actual fire/medical calls under certain conditions such as, but not limited to:
-
- Explorers cannot enter a structure unless deemed stable and secure.
- Explorers man only enter a structure fire after the initial attack, and search.
Certain local, state, and federal laws as well as National BSA Regulations restrict the duties an Explorer can perform on a fire ground, a medical call, or motor vehicle accident.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“I fancy it must be the quantity of animal food eaten by the English which renders their character insusceptible of civilisation. I suspect it is in their kitchens and not in their churches that their reformation must be worked, and that Missionaries of that description from [France] would avail more than those who should endeavor to tame them by precepts of religion or philosophy.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“The great object in life is Sensation—to feel that we exist, even though in pain; it is this “craving void” which drives us to gaming, to battle, to travel, to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“It is possible—indeed possible even according to the old conception of logic—to give in advance a description of all ‘true’ logical propositions. Hence there can never be surprises in logic.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
