Military Members Serving Overseas: To thank the men and women in the military, we are still offering two deals especially for them. The first is Free Priority Mail Shipping to any APO or FPO address. If ordering online, choose the APO/FPO shipping option.

The second deal is Free Shipping on the first order of any military member who has just returned from serving overseas. The order will ship via ground services (USPS Priority or
UPS Ground) and we'll pay the shipping charge. Just choose the APO/FPO shipping option, and let us know you just got back from overseas in the comments section.

Station libraries:We know that we’re in tough economic times.  We will work very hard with you to get your instructional / promotional books and DVDs for your station libraries.  Send us a list of what you need and what your budget is. We’ll do our best to meet your needs.  If you’re not sure what you need, give us a call or drop us an email and we can help.

IFSTA Library: We get requests from some departments for a "complete set of IFSTA manuals".  There are a number of problems with this. First, what IFSTA calls their "complete set" changes frequently because of edition changes, titles discontinued, titles added.  The second problem is that every fire department really doesn't need every book in a "complete set".  They may already have some, or don't need some (Marine Firefighting, for example).  So, to get what you really need, nothing more, and at a reduced price, email us a list to what you want (please use the IFSTA 35xxx or 36xxx number).  We will promptly reply with a quote.

Purchase Orders: FSP can invoice your department, school, university or business. Please contact us to set up an account.

VHS Videos: We still have some ½ price videos left, but they’re going fast.  See the complete list at:  https://www.fire-police-ems.com/videos/2500.shtml

Firefighter Recruit Training: So far this year we’ve seen the release of 5 new editions of recruit training books. They are:

IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting 5th edition (https://www.fire-police-ems.com/books/be6271.shtml);  

IFSTA / Brady Essentials of Fire Fighting and Fire Department Operations, 5th ed (https://www.fire-police-ems.com/books/be6280.shtml);

Jones & Bartlett Fundamentals of Fire Fighter Skills, 2nd ed. (https://www.fire-police-ems.com/books/bf9842.shtml);  

Delmar Firefighter's Handbook: Essentials of Firefighting 3rd ed (https://www.fire-police-ems.com/books/bf5647.shtml) and

Firefighter's Handbook: Firefighting and Emergency Response, 3rd ed (https://www.fire-police-ems.com/books/bf5649.shtml).

Pennwell (Fire Engineering) has announced that they will have Firefighter recruit training materials available late summer or early fall. Most of these titles have study guides and / or software to help your recruits succeed in their training.

Recruit Training Fact Sheet: With so many options, where does a department start? We have put together a PDF spreadsheet breaking down the major similarities and differences between the recruit training books. The spreadsheet can be downloaded at: https://www.fire-police-ems.com/misc/firefighter-recruit-training.shtml, or call or email us for a copy.

Authors / Producers: Do you have a title we should be carrying? You can find our submission guidelines at: https://www.fire-police-ems.com/misc/authors.shtml.
