Greetings from germany

[GermanFF1430]

Hi all,

being from germany I finally found the forum and I want to say hello to everybody.

I work as a paid FF/PM plus I volunteer in my hometown and am a member of @fire - german wildland handcrew / USAR team.

Please feel free to contact me as we are always looking for exchange of knowledge and contacts....

Yours

Detlef "Mausi" Maushake

Guten Tag. Welcome to the firehouse. BTW please pardon any and all horrible german I may utter (see another thread somewheres on here). Not sure how correct I am, but to me atleast most of our overseas guys seem to be either from the UK or are a Kiwi/Aussie type (please don't hurt me Kiwi if I screwed up lumping you with the Aussies ).

Herzlich Willkommen,

exile German here, hope you stick around these forums. Lots of good info to be found here. Always good to see a fellow German lurking these halls with me.

Welcome to the forums.

I'd have done that in German, but I just have a German name and heritage - no foreign language skills.

What part of Germany are you from?

Welcome to the funny farm

You will find answers to all questions here or even answer a few yourself.

What are the training pre-requisites for handcrews there? Can you refer me to any websites highlighting German wildfire crews/aircraft/suppression/etc.?
