Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A fire-service publication with tactical deep dives and practical how-tos on training, apparatus, gear, and station leadership.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-31 issue.

For: Firefighters, company officers, and fire-service gear buyers
Worth noticing: The lead story links UL testing—engineered floors failed in about six minutes—to what a 360 must assess before a basement-fire entry.

Field notes

The homepage sorts material into Training, Tactics, Gear & Apparatus, Station & Leadership, and Lessons, with article types labeled Deep Dive or How-To. Other listed pieces include a lithium-fire gear-decontamination decision tree, a retrospective on the Charleston Sofa Super Store fire, and guidance for handing off an EV fire to a tow operator. The summaries describe operational decisions and training applications, not just general fire-service news.
