On October 13th E152(Williamson), RE153(Broyles), B156(Chapman), U15(D. White), A159(Rosebrock) and C15-1(Moe) performed a drill focusing on getting "Back to Basics", units reported to a donated structure in Box Alarm area and performed drills including but not limited to:

- Hoseline Advancement
- Search and Rescue
- Ground Ladder Skills
- Forcible Entry

Over 25 volunteers spent roughly three (3) hours rotating past each station at least twice assuring each member had time to perform the steps as required to enhance their skills. We pride ourselves in our Operational Memberships ongoing commitment to better themselves with constant classroom training, practical training and drills and a solid commitment to maintaining their required credentials to provide the best service possible in your time of need.
