Firefighters look so valiant and dashing in their uniforms and when they drive the vans and reach the site where the fire has broken out, we feel confident that lives will be saved and the fire will be extinguished in no time. But for doing this, firefighter training is necessary. These brave men risk their own lives to save the lives of people who have been caught up in dangerous fires.
