Tuesday - February 8th, 2022 Drill Night
This month, companies are recertifying for CPR, reviewing ropes and knots, and running drills on RIT/downed firefighter.
SWFD just acquired new Fast-Attack RIT-Paks from 3M Scott Fire & Safety. These bags contain air bottles smaller than the ones we wear on our backs and are brought into fires for emergency use by our Rapid Intervention Team. Crews from Company 2 ran through several evolutions last night to get their hands on the new RIT-Pak. Scenarios have included: firefighter with a broken mask; firefighter separated from SCBA; firefighter with low air; firefighter unconscious; and more.
