Training Day for Branchville
By Firefighter John Fitzpatrick
January 23, 2010
This morning members from 11 headed to a local business park for a day of training. The Drill started at 8:00am with a talk about the different options available when pulling the long lines that are carried on the wagon. Next we hit the street to practice pulling the 400 foot line through stairwells, the 300 foot line over ladders, and also extending the long lines with various hoses carried on the wagon. This drill was intended to strengthen and better the members skills and also as a chance for members preparing to take the interior riding test to start practicing. A special thanks to Capt. Lindsey, Sgt. Manco, and Sgt. Soehner for putting on the drill, and also to the company photographer Jen Wilbanks.
