Fire brigade workshop in Brück: Tactical fire for Germany in view!

Organized by the German Fire Brigade Association (DFV) and the association for vegetation fire fighting @fire, around 25 fire fighters from all over Germany gathered to discuss the controlled use of fire for fire fighting. In countries such as Spain and the USA, this approach has been established for decades, but standardized procedures have so far been no standardized procedures in Germany. As fireworld.at , the participants clearly discussed the possible uses and limits of the tactical fire.

international expertise and German cooperation

The workshop was opened by Jan Südmersen, the chairman of @fire, and Major Christian Matera, the commander of the Lehnin military training area. Matera praised the civil-military cooperation that had existed for years. In addition, experts from the Catalan special unit from Spain traveled from Spain, which brought over 30 years of experience in preventive and tactical fire use. The Rhein-Main-Waldbrandwaldpreesung initiatives are supported by the close cooperation between the Brand Directorate Frankfurt and the Rottenburg University of Forestry, which underlines the importance of the international study, which was realized with the funds of the external office, as Vegetationbraende.de

During the three -day workshop, the participants worked in groups and discussed legal and operational framework conditions. A uniform training model for tactical fire operations in Germany is now being developed. The results of the workshop were considered extremely productive by everyone involved, since they create an important basis for creating recommendations for future operational standards. These findings will make a decisive contribution to expanding the professional integration and efficiency of forest fire fighting in Germany.
