A recommendation was made at the weekly fire drill
debrief to post suggestions for future drills.
The suggestions are:
* Place placards near doors to every space listing the
breakers that will secure electrical power and
ventilation.
* Ensure that hooks are installed at all interior and
exterior doors to hold them open.
* Install dedicated radios (qty-3) at suit-up locations
for each fire team.
* Each fire team member should carry wooden wedges to
be used for propping doors open.
Evening movies: (Both will start at 1730 and again at
2000.)
