Training Night At

By Captain Jason Koepke
May 11, 2015

A training was held here at the 50 house on 5/11/15 on Search & Rescue and offensive Fire Attack at a acquired structure in our district with two civilians trapped. Engine 51 arrived on scene with a simulated working fire and assumed fire attack with pulling the front 1 3/4 bumper load and advancing through the "C" of the structure. Rescue 50 arrived on scene and simulated securing all the utilities and conducted a primary search by entering through the " C " side of the structure. Engine 51 extinguished the simulated fire that was in the "B " corner and was involved in a simulated partial collapse in which the crew had to breach a wall. Rescue 50 did a right handed search and found two victims in the " A" side of the structure and extricated them through the " C " side. We had the same scenario twice with members switching crews. Class was taught by Captain Koepke, Lt. Brian Singles and FF. Greg Sellers with a good turn out of members.

Units: Engine 51, Rescue 50
