The Biggest hose we got on out Cadet appliance would be The 70 Mil as we call it, which would mean 70 Millimetres Wide And Each hose on the Truck is 25 Meters Long, Using The 70Mil hose on the truck pumping water through it at about 20 bar pressure would probably empty the tank in about 3 Mins

Day Shift is 9AM - 6PM Night Shift 6PM - 9AM
70 mil? Roughly the size of 2 1/2"......... 1 3/4 is where its at. Lighter, more maneuverable, etc

Guv probably did lol
Different sizes of hoses. Both very dangerous if you lose control. A 70mil could prob kill you if you let that nozzle go. Inch and 3/4 could knock your teeth out.
Would most probably kill you
Best training story: ive only so far done a hose drill which is very basic stuff, but i have observed the more senior cadets do a house fire simulation. which again is some basic stuff with some drill commands involved, running a hose reel through a open gap in a wall up a staircase and back down again
