Train like you fight. Expect Fire, Expect Victims.
Last night during a duty crew, the members of Station 11 took a break from the snow and did search and hose advancement drills in the station.
Members recently conducted training on search and stretching hand lines, followed by a cover assignment and EMS assist call.
We started the month off with 2 rescue assignments for car accidents. With that, your volunteer members trained tonight on vehicle stabilization. The frozen ground and snow helped add a layer of complexity and challenges.
