Quick Save by JTFD on Structure Fire

On November 19th at 18:36 JTFD1 was called into action on the report of a Structure Fire at 2 Lorna Ln. Upon arrival the B/C side of the structure was “working” and JTFD1 quickly knocked it down, JTFD2 was on standby at Co1 headquarters and the substation in the event manpower was needed.

Vehicle Stabilization Drill

Here you see where JTFD1 stays current with vehicle safety. We practice on how to support the vehicle and use airbags and cribbing to lift up vehicle.

“Cribbing” is essential during rescue operations.  In fact, cribbing is one of the most frequently used tools during vehicle rescue operations.  Gravity is inescapable; thus cribbing is used to redistribute the weight of objects into a ‘footprint’. Cribbing provides a temporary support during rescue operations.

Here the team is discussing the proper techniques for stabilizing an SUV.
