Man Vs Machine Training

Steven Belmont • October 26, 2022

On Saturday, members gathered at headquarters to participate in the Man Vs. Machinery Training led by instructors from P.L. Vulcan Fire Training Concepts LLC . The 7-hour course covered unique technical rescue scenarios that could seem out of the ordinary, but are very possible within our response area. The topics included Fence Impalement, Limb Stuck in a Meat Grinder, Ring Cutting, Person Trapped Under a Vehicle and various other subjects. Thank you to our members who spent their Saturday training and to the instructors for their expertise and valuable knowledge.
