    Default firefighting classes

    ok it may sound dumb but after you take your FF1 class isnt the nexy class you go through FF2. because i always thought there was FF1A, FF1B, FF1C before you went to FF2

    It all depends where you are located. Here we only have FF1 & FF2. I have heard of other places have classes in between.

    in maryland its FF1 then FF2 and there was a "FF3" but thats was done away with. fire 3 in maryland basicly means you're a pump operator/driver. FF4 in marylannd is a paramedic FF.
