Engine 391 preformed engine company functions and vehicle stabilization. Rescue 3-9 and Squad 3-9's crews provided patient care and packaging. Units where released by command and returned to the training site.
Training resumed at 20:00. Firefighters where divided up and maned apparatus for each scenario. Crews stretched handlines and forced entry into the trunk and engine compartment of each vehicle for fire suppression. It was a good training session for our firefighters to practice fire attack and pumping apparatus.
Special thanks to New Holland Concrete for use of their facility, New Holland EMS for stand-by and everyone how has donated vehicles to Liberty Fire Company so we can continue to sharpen our skills.
