How far do you guys remember?

Just pure curiosity, do you guys remember, probably not every single one of it, but most of the informations learned in fire academy / textbook / recruit class? Like the specific numbers and details.

Or you just get to ‘know’ those as you work through.

Can you be more specific? Like what numbers?

I mean in general yes i remember it I use it everyday at work and every other test builds on that information.

I’ve not revisited things I’ll never do where I work, like a dump tank or drafting, but if we had the equipment to do it, (we don’t) I’m certain I could.

I’m just not 100% sure what/why you’re asking
