    behavior.

E   Ensure instructions are given and understood.

O   Obtain current information on fire status.

    and adjoining forces.
D   Determine safety zones and escape routes.
E   Establish lookouts in potentially hazardous situations.
R   Retain control at all times.

     These  form  a  set  of guidelines  to  make  your  wildfire 
firefighters better prepared.   These are even more important for 
structural   fire  fighters  who  are  infrequently  exposed   to 
wildfires.
