More firefighters. More unexpected career paths. 👀 There’s no single path to the fire service. Every background brings something valuable to the job. Applications for Entry-Level Firefighter are open through September 1. Comment EPFR2027 and we’ll send all the details.
Ironically I nearly joined the fire service 19 years ago how life could have been different… I didn’t go the interview but apparently these are the questions I may have been asked Remember I’m joking 🙃 it’s just a little bit of banter 😬
He thought he was coming back to Station 6 after a call. He had no idea what was waiting for him. Stephen Mayer was promoted to Battalion Chief this week, and when he returned, the station was packed with family, friends and firefighters there to celebrate him. Some traveled from other states. Others came from different chapters of his life. All came for the same reason. To celebrate Stephen Mayer! Born and raised in Queens, New York, Stephen found his calling in the fire service in 1995 when he joined the Fire Reserve Program. Please join us in congratulating, Battalion Chief Mayer. #SacramentoFire #SacFire #SFD #firefighters #FireDepartment
🔥 Training Today. Ready Tomorrow. 🚒 Firefighters Rubin and Butler attending the 2026 Arizona Fire School Forcible Entry class, taking advantage of an opportunity to sharpen one of the most essential skills in the fire service. Forcible entry requires knowledge, technique, and repetition. Continued hands-on training allows our firefighters to refine their skills, build confidence, and stay prepared for the challenges they may face on the fireground. Strong skills are built through continued training. 💪🔥 #FirefighterTraining #ForcibleEntry #FireSchool2026 #FireService

Clove hitch knots anchor fire service ropes to structural points during rescue, rappel, and hoisting operations. The knot tightens under load from either direction, resists sliding along bars and rails, and releases quickly when tension is removed. It forms the foundation of countless rigging setups where speed and reliability both matter. The firefighter drapes the rope over the bar and wraps a full cross, then adds a second parallel wrap. The working end tucks under the second turn, and the knot cinches as load is applied. An overhand safety knot ties the tail around the standing line, preventing slippage under cyclic or intermittent tension. The backup secures what the primary knot achieves. Fire service rigging operates under life-safety loads where knot failure is not recoverable. The clove hitch with a safety overhand distributes load across redundant locking points. The sequence is tested under training conditions until it becomes muscle memory. In operations, the knot must form correctly in the dark, in smoke, in gloves, under pressure. The mechanics are simple. The consequences of error are not. The safety knot closes the loop. This content is shared strictly for educational purposes. DM us for credit/removal.

Turns out, firefighting wasn’t everyone’s first job. 👀🚒 Here’s what some of our members were doing before joining the fire service!
Hughesy fires up over Victoria’s Emergency Services Levy! Victorians are paying more, so where is the money going? Because it certainly doesn’t seem to be making its way back into the fire service. If communities are paying more, they deserve the resources and protection they’re paying for.
We like to say we go the extra mile for our community, and in this case, we really did! Our firefighters recently responded to an incident involving a person on an electric bike. The patient had to be transported, and instead of leaving the electric bike at the scene, one of our firefighters volunteered to ride the bike back to Station 11 for the patient to pick up. Long story short, the bike didn't work, so our firefighter had to pedal the bike back to the station in his gear, which was almost 10 blocks away. Never a dull day in the fire service, and definitely never a dull day at ACFR!!! (Points if you recognize the music...)
