Training took place at the Loudoun County Fire and Rescue Training Center. Here, Engine 1 idles in front of the burn building. | |
|
Behind the burn building is the rescue simulator. It allows training on a variety of rescue situations. In the Denver drill, firefighters must remove an unconscous victim through a window. Here, FF Mike McMurrer is the victim. | |
|
PFF Josh Lee maneuvers inside the tight confines to reach FF McMurrer and begin the process of getting him rescued. | |
|
FF McMurrer is being passed through the window to waiting rescuers on the outside. | |
|
He was "carefully" placed on the ground! | |
|
Next, Captain Wayne Whetsell begins the process of rescuing FF Anthony Jackson. Rescuing a "husky" firefighter utilizes the same techniques; it just requires a little more manpower! | |
|
Here, FF J. C. Blaylock works to get FF Jackson up on his feet so he can be moved out through the window. | |
|
With a heave and ho, he's out the window! | |
|
PFF Josh Lee was next to be rescued. | |
|
He's doing a good imitation of a possum. | |
