Fire Department Classes On Propane At Training Facility

This week students learned how to handle propane and flammable liquid fires. Students were shown how to set-up for and approach these type of fires while keeping the fire from reaching the firefighters working to control it.

There were a lot of smiles on the students faces as this was some of the first big flames these aspiring firefighters have encountered during class so far.

Special thanks from the Fire Department to Todd Newell at Newell’s Gas and Appliance in Michigantown for bringing out a truck so these guys and gals could experience this.
