Mark’s Orientation to the SFFD

Mark,

and the entire interwebs,

I planned on writing a long post about the ins and outs of working in the City and County of San Francisco, but figured a mini-series might do better.

A few years back, film maker David Furtado with Tule Fog Productions, shot a webisode, webi…web…heck it looks like a real TV series, so I’m using “TV series” here in San Francisco.  It is called The Battalion.

Watch the pilot, then keep watching until you feel ready.  You can access the player through THIS link and click on the episodes on the right hand side, just start with episode 1.  I was not part of the filming at the time.

In a related piece of news, you can now follow the Battalion- the Series on twitter at @the_Battalion.  they’re currently trying to get the series on A&E in the states.  All of you drop by the site and have a link over to A&E and tell them to get more real firefighting shows on TV!
