Monday night's training was performing CPR on a downed firefighter. As we wrapped up training, we were dispatched to a structure fire nearby. The first unit was on scene within three minutes. Between the rapid response and a quick-thinking resident who shut the door to the affected room, the fire was contained to a small area and was fully extinguished within minutes. Excellent work by everyone on a great stop!

It's been a busy week for firefighters. On Tuesday afternoon, we responded to a structure fire. Pictured below are members working together to clean and return equipment back into service after the fire.

On Thursday evening, we reviewed a water supply tactic known as the "rural hitch." This tactic was also utilized during Tuesday's structure fire, which allowed us to quickly establish water supply and knock down the fire.

As we began our Thursday training, a crew responded to Wales with Squad 145 for a working structure fire. En route to the scene, they were assigned water supply at the Wales Fire house drafting site. The Squad 145 crew set up a draft and had water flowing within five minutes. The crew filled several tankers over the duration of the incident.

On Thursday night, we trained on maximizing water flow from a fire hydrant. Pumping large amounts of water at fire scenes requires lots of training and practice. Everyone learned something during this drill, from our newest members to our most experienced. Great job by all who attended!
