为了纪念消防员马克·福尔肯汉（Mark Falkenhan），关门！

On the evening on January 19, 2011 Fire Fighter Mark Falkenhan lost his life while working inside a building fire.

虽然我们应该努力纪念所有洛德，但这个人在我心中占有特殊的位置，因为在他去世时，我正在寻求更多有关火灾行为的信息，并正在审查UL和NIST的最新报告。这些报告以及与实际的智能消防员交谈，我很快意识到，我真的需要更多地了解火灾行为，而不仅仅是引用火灾是什么。如果大多数消防员对自己和船员都真正诚实，他们将不得不承认他们已经接受了训练以背诵火的定义，并扑灭了许多火灾，但是，他们关于火的大部分知识仅是罐装的回应。他们在新兵课程中学到了。

看到诚实并承认他们有很多关于火的兄弟，尽管他们已经战斗了许多火灾，但今天早上，这些兄弟让我为他们感到骄傲以及他们所做的出色工作，这令人耳目一新。Holding 1&1。Check out a good honest post they wrote about how Firefighter Mark Falkenhan death was not in vain and they have also made it their quest to learn more about fire behavior.

As I mentioned before the time of Mark’s death I was actively reading over and over the latest reports that were coming out and trying to soak it all in. I was beginning to notice that regardless of rather the report was from UL, NIST, Kill The Flashover or UK and Sweden scientist the common theme was if the door was closed the fire was controlled. Also around this timeframe I had a facebook conversation with Chief Shawn Oke about how much impact a closed door had on fire behavior and saving both firefighters and civilians life’s.

Chief Oke conversation motivated me to take the CLOSE THE DOOR message to the masses. Then unfortunately came 30 Dowling Circle 01.19.2011 Box 11-09. This incident and Firefighter Mark Falkenhan death made my desire to spread the message about closing the door become a driven passion.

So the best way we can honor Firefighter Mark Falkenhan today is too revisit information about this incident and other credible fire behavior sources.

虽然我们可以从建模和报道说，如果关闭了原始的消防室，我们今天仍然可能在这里有消防员马克·福尔肯汉（Mark Falkenhan）！但是，这里是同一事件中的一些照片，其中工作人员做了适当的VES挽救了生命，并关闭了对该房间的火灾损坏产生巨大影响的门。

消防员马克·福尔肯汉（Mark Falkenhan）并不是唯一的消防员，如果我们向公众传达信息，今天仍然可能与我们一起在这里。因此，让我们不仅仅是谈论成为我们的兄弟姐妹守护者，让我们通过向所有人的所有人传播门的信息来做到这一点！
