Drill Night: Vehicle Fire
For tonight’s drill Fire Company 1 went to the Bergen fire Academy to practice our skills with fighting a vehicle fire. This vehicle was one of the department’s old and out of service support vehicles, since this was a real vehicle and not a prop, we were able to simulate a situation that we may encounter. Think you would like to join us? Stop by Wednesday nights at 7:30 or email us at info@mfdco1.org
