Tailboard Talk: Minimum Standards

Tailboard Talk podcast

On the 100th episode of Tailboard Talk, Craig Nelson, Jeff Wallin, and Chris Rasmussen discuss minimum standards for the fire service. Do they set the standard of performance, or set the fire service up for lackluster performance? This is based on the article The Dichotomy of Minimum Standards by Corley Moore.
