Most significant fires require a large amount of water to extinguish rapidly. We train in techniques to handle this force so that we can move as much water as possible safely. #CobbFire #HandLines #Pressure #GPMs

Being a firefighter is one of the most challenging and rewarding jobs. We fight together and live together for 24 hours at a time. This creates strong bonds and friends you will have for the rest of your life. #CobbFire #Family #TrueFriends #StrongBonds

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Elisabeth (Lisa) Barringer-Cook, a beloved member of our Cobb County Fire & Emergency Services family. She served for five years with the Fulton County Fire Department before joining us as a Firefighter Paramedic in 2017. #RIP

When someone needs rescue from a window during a fire, they need rescue NOW. In order to get that ladder in place and the person out of harm's way, we have to be able to throw a ladder accurately, quickly, and usually without help.

We're proud to introduce Fire Chief Michael Cunningham, a dedicated leader with nearly two decades of service to our community. From his start as a Firefighter in 2005 to his most recent role as Division Chief and Chief of Staff, he has exemplified excellence in the fire service.

Firefighters also have to be great EMTs and Paramedics as we are usually the first crews on the scene. To give fluids or life-saving medications, we have to be proficient at placing an IV.

Firefighters have to be in great physical shape. The job demands it. To ensure our firefighters maintain physical fitness we have gyms at almost every station and our training center. These are the stair stations in our PAT testing facility.

Our Safety Village provides non-stop risk reduction through training, smoke alarm programs, elementary school education, and more. We are very proud of our safety village and the peeps who work hard every day to lead the way to a safer future.

Last week in review!

Tight spaces and high buildings make it difficult for us to get fire apparatus where we need it in the event of a fire. The solution to that is a ladder truck known as a tiller.

Engine 2 is first one scene of a single story commercial fire at a mechanic shop on the 100 block of Gann Rd. All occupants are reported to be out safely. Cobb & Marietta Fire are working to extinguish multiple automobiles and the structure currently on fire.

Our public information officers are critical in getting accurate information out to the public promptly. A good PIO is a mixture of an experienced firefighter and a good communicator.

SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE TONIGHT This is a great time for you and your family to make sure you have a way to get notified of severe weather and determine where you will go should the warnings hit. Monitor bit.ly/3DEw5KL for the latest updates.

Sometimes the craziest stuff catches on fire. This is a trash truck the trash in the back caught fire. They had to dump the truck and then put the trash fire out.
