The nozzle on the ladder pipe can flow 1000 gallons per minute to help quench a raging fire. | Los Angeles Fire Department | Facebook

Congratulations to the 70 Cadets participating in the ten week first ever LAFD Cadet Academy which will not only further prepare the participants for a career in the fire service, but will also teach them valuable life skills in leadership, conflict resolution, fiscal responsibility, health/diet, resume writing, interview prep, and more! #scba #joinlafd #firecadet #cadet #hoseline #fire #lafd #firefighter #fireengine #firetruck #basicops #ladders #carfire #autofire #turnouts #ppe #sperian #seagr
