- agateau 8y agoParis firefighters are part of the French Army [1], so they are used to being commanded. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_Fire_Brigade https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_Fire_Brigade

If they get 8 months of training before employment, I kinda hope they spend more time on the theory and practice of firefighting than being a soldier.
