Week 8 Academy Recap

Week 8 of academy focused on vehicle fire suppression as recruits executed safe and effective tactics, using our FireBlast Car Prop.

Recruits also practiced their self-rescue skills for mayday scenarios and continued with search and rescue training, seen on the Thermal Imaging Camera (TIC).

Graduation is just around the corner, and we can't wait to celebrate the hard work and determination these 12 recruits have put in .
