                        Smoke Showing

"
Smoke Showing" is a short film that visually demonstrates the dangers and challenges faced by firefighters during a structural fire. Often we get the same questions repeatedly: Why do you need so many firefighters? What do the different trucks do? Why do you always break the windows? These can be difficult issues to explain. The intent of this film is to educate elected officials and the public in fire operations. "Smoke Showing" demonstrates the need for an aggressive interior attack coupled with adequate resources in order to save lives and reduce property loss. The film is opened by the cast of "Rescue Me." It is dedicated to the proud service of Tom F. Brennan.
