Part 1
The Interior Fire Fighter ("Yellow Helmet") candidate must have
successfully completed all of the requirements to be an Active
Fire Fighter of the Varna Fire Company. It is expected that this
test will be completed in a single session. Only a chief officer
can grant exceptions to this policy.
The candidate must be able to:
- Don an SCBA off 1901 three times. The average time of
three consecutive donnings must be less than 60 seconds, and
all three donnings must be of 100% quality.
- Demonstrate a thorough understanding of the SCBA failure
emergency procedures.
- Demonstrate a thorough understanding of how to do the
low-profile and full escape maneuvers.
- Successfully navigate an obstacle course set up by the
examining officer. This course must include at least one
full-escape in the dark (no flashlight for this).
