Demarest, NJ - Firefighters from Companies 1, 2, and 3 recently conducted a comprehensive drill at an acquired structure in Closter. The training focused on both engine and truck company operations, with members practicing a variety of hose stretches and reviewing VEIS (Vent, Enter, Isolate, Search) techniques.
The coordinated exercise provided an opportunity for hands-on learning and reinforced teamwork across companies. Special recognition is extended to Deputy Chief Spina and Captain Young for organizing and leading the successful training session.
