Another Intense Night of Training for CFDFAST
By Deputy Chief John Munson
August 18, 2014
Last night, members of the CFD Firefighter Assist & Search Team (FAST) held our monthly training session. The drill took place at the Millwood Fire Training Center, located next to their firehouse on Route 134.
Tonight's training reviewed the basics of search, teamwork and firefighter air management. Following that, the brothers took turns carrying a "downed member" up a flight of stairs. All of the evolutions were done where the members had their vision blacked out and had to perform all skills in zero visibility.
Our thanks to Millwood FD for the use of their training house!
