This Sunday morning we held a "Firefighter Skills Class," a "Motor Pump Operators Class," and Driver Training for our members who are becoming Apparatus Drivers on Engine 143 for our weekly Sunday Training.

This Sunday's "Firefighter Skills Class" focused on an apparatus review of Engine 142 & Tanker 4, the purpose of several Firefighting tools & equipment on an emergency scene and a review of horizontal & vertical ventilation. 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.

This Sunday's "Motor Pump Operators Class" had our prospective apparatus drivers going over pump discharge pressure calculations and how to operate the Engine 142 pump panel while in a water source operation. This type of training is what will help our prospective Apparatus Drivers/MPOs become cleared drivers on Engine 142.
