Just a short note to inform the wider JOIFF membership of the great work carried out by JOIFF members in assisting with the fire-fighting activities at Buncefield Oil Depot this week. The professionalism of all those involved was evidenced by the successful mitigation of one of the largest peace time incidents to have occurred on these shores. I am proud to have worked alongside these very remarkable people….
