This past Monday night the Vista Fire Department was invited to take part in a Tanker operations drill at the South Salem Firehouse. These type of drills are very important to the Vista FD as working on smooth water supply techniques will help suppress a fire efficiently and effectively. It's also a great opportunity to work with our neighboring Fire departments like South Salem as the likelihood of working together during a fire is extremely high. Many thanks to South Salem Fire Department for inviting the Vista FD to their Firehouse this past Monday night!
