Is this what you are looking for? Pittsburgh Drill (http://www.in.gov/dhs/files/pittsburgh.pdf)

Brett.. you left out a "t" in Pittsburgh. that's probably why it didn't come up when you searched for it.

Ever hear about the guy who went the train station to buy tickets as he had business in Pittsburgh? The clerk at the window was a very attractive woman who was well endowed. The poor guy asked for two pickets to ....burgh.:)

What is the history behind the Pittsburg drill? I know the history behind the Denver drill, that is why I am assuming there is one for this as well.

If I recall my fire history correctly: The Pittsburgh drill came about after some Pittsburgh firefighters were killed in a structure fire. I think James Crawford came up with it or something. Crawford has done alot for RIT in this country. I took a class down in Houston that he taught and learned alot.
