This Sunday morning we held a "Firefighter Skills Class" for our weekly Sunday Training.
This Sunday's "Firefighter Skills Class" had our Firefighting personnel reviewing how to stretch an 1-3/4" hose line off of Engine 143 while simulating a basement fire. Vista Firefighters practiced hose line advancement in a basement fire setting and how they would perform a search & rescue under these circumstances. This type of training is what will help our Firefighters who plan on attending the New York State Firefighter I program succeed in their class and for our Firefighters who have completed Firefighter I to keep up with their skills.
