Education is required because even though there is a lot of common sense things to do, there is also a lot of "thinking" involved. Such as; calculating in your head the friction loss for a 100 foot section of LDH (Large Diameter Hose) or the p.s.i. you will need to make sure the water get's where it needs to go. No matter what people say firefighting is one of the most complex tasks someone can do and no one will understand that until they walk in the shoes of a firefighter.
