Fire ghters Participate In Air Management Drill

WHITING – Whiting Fire Company Station 33 members participated in a drill with a variety of evolutions built into a circuit.

Members were paired up to complete/ navigate through the following tasks for time: heavy tire fl ips, entanglement prop, weighted dummy drag, removal of the “victim” from a window, and exiting via “window.”

The main objective to this training exercise was focused on air management during physical exertion. Although our SCBA bottles are “45-minute bottles,” actual time is greatly impacted by exertion, breathing pattern, and physical fitness. Training in this manner can greatly improve actual bottle time during emergency incidents.
