Tonight's drill combined aerial operations for the driver/operators and Rapid Intervention Team (RIT) training for SCBA certified personnel. RIT scenarios included Buddy Breathing hookups and RIT Pack utilization, both under near-zero visibility conditions.

The utilization of the acquired structures the department is so very fortunate to have permission in which to train, offers the ability to work in situations that mirror those we will face on actual calls in our response area. A very special thanks to all those individuals and corporations that partner with the department and offer their structures for training before they fall prey to the wrecking ball.
