North Haven Fire Fighters Host Successful Fire Ops
November
20, 2009 – North Haven, CT Local 2987 hosted five members of the North Haven
Board of Selectmen at its Fire Ops 101.
Local 2987 fire fighters took event participants through four
evolutions: an EMS module focusing on the differences between ALS and BLS; auto
extrication; fire truck operations; and live fire.
“For our decision-makers to truly understand what we do, they
must have hands-on opportunities like this one,” says Local 2987 President Jeff
Obier.
During the live fire evolution, participants wore SCBA and
experienced extreme temperatures and zero visibility.
