Today was a great day of hands-on training during our live burn! Our crews had the opportunity to train in a realistic environment and continue building experience and confidence in a controlled setting.
Training like this is invaluable. It allows our firefighters to put their knowledge and skills to work so we can be better prepared when the call is real. 🚒🔥
