Frank Leeb
Deputy Assistant Chief
FDNY
WEST BABYLON, New York, United States
Using the leadership lessons learned and reinforced at the January 2022 Twin Park Fire in the Bronx, this presentation will focus on strategies and tactics employed and those to consider when responding to large scale incidents. The Twin Parks fire resulted in more than 70 victims and required the adaptation of FDNY standard strategies and tactics which resulted in many lives saved. Chief Leeb was the command chief for this fire and arrived on scene quickly at this escalating incident and assisted the initial incident commander. His first hand knowledge will equip you with the strategic and tactical considerations necessary to stay ahead of a quickly expanding and evolving incident.
The fact is, every town in America has the potential of a large scale incident that can produce multiple victims and quickly overwhelm and outstrip responding resources. Are you prepared?
