Live Fire Training great
hands-on experience
On April 2 and 3, Tri-Rivers Public Safety training
conducted the first live fire training in school
history.
The live fire training was the
culmination of Firefighter One training program for
the high school seniorlevel 2 fire/EMT cadets. The
program was initiated in 2006 in the junior level as
a public safety core curriculum that covers law
enforcement, ems, and firefighting. As seniors the
students declare their career pathway in either
firefighting/EMT or law enforcement.
On April 2, the cadets participated in fire
extinguisher training and car fire evolutions. On
April 3, the cadets participated in live fire
training at Tri-Rivers Live Fire simulator.
First Consolidated Fire Department provided a medic
squad, rescue truck, and water tanker as well as
personnel that provided coverage for the rapid
intervention team. Chief Clint Canterbury provided
his support as fire ground operations in support of
the command center.
On April 3, First Consolidated Fire Department
again provided vehicles and personnel in support of
fire ground operations. Marion Township Fire
Department provided dispatch assistance on both days
of training, acting as a valuable resource in
providing accountability on the fire ground. Marion
Township Fire Department also provided an air truck
to refill air bottles at the fire scene. Chief Mike
Fogle served as Safety Officer to ensure firefighter
safety at all times during the training.
