This past weekend the TARS Rescue College’s made its way to Wi******er Tennessee to host a Heavy Rescue (Semi and Heavy Recovery) class. But while in route we had a wheel on the trailer that decided to leave the chat.. lol

So instead of calling AAA. We had BR, who not only had the parts needed to make an emergency repair, but also repaired the wheel good enough to get us back on the road. Now that’s service! 😁👍🏼

We want to thank Wi******er Fire Department and Monteagle Fire & Rescue for having us out for this class and also thank Ikard Towing and Sales Inc for their assistance with the rotator and rollback. Without support like this, it would be impossible to put these classes on.

We also want to thank everyone who makes these classes possible. From lodging, logistics, photography, food, instructors, vehicles to cut on and more.

Be sure to tag the Tennessee Association of Rescue Squads, The Real Benny Braden & Rescue Company Media when share photos from this class. It helps us out tremendously.
