Ladder Truck & Victim Rescue

One of our neighboring fire departments, Theodore Dawes Fire, invited us to train with them at the local high school recently.

Firefighters practiced gaining roof access for ventilation, rescuing a victim from an upper level, command tactics, communication, and more!

Many thanks to Theodore Dawes Fire for the training opportunity.
Everyone Goes Home!

Rescue and Roof Saws

Firefighters using K12 saw to cut into building

Chief McKeever trained firefighters on the use of our K-12 rescue saws and the best techniques for going through walls and roofs.

K12 saw

Frequent practice not only keeps the saws in good working order, but keeps everyone proficient in the care and maintenance of tools.
