Female Firefighters Back into Structure Fires
From ABC Action News (via FirefightingNews.com), the chief of the department that prohibited female firefighters from structure fires has rescinded his order. Imagine that. Here is my original post on this.
Wednesday, he announced that the threat no longer remains. However, he would not say why, adding that an internal investigation continues.
This chief keeps digging himself into a hole. This looks like he is trying to hide something. In his defense though, he may not be able to give many details because of city policies.

I'm glad to hear that! We had female interior attack firefighters and I would have gone, and often did go, through the door with any of them.
Great post, keep 'em coming!

Thanks for posting your comment, Bill. I'm with you on this one too. As long as a person can do the job, I'll go through the door with them. It doesn't matter what gender they are.
