Demarest, NJ - Southside companies alongside the 24-Ladder took part in an overnight training exercise at an acquired structure in Closter, focusing on essential Truck Company operations.

Firefighters rotated through multiple hands-on evolutions in three groups, sharpening skills in primary search, ladder placement, and vertical ventilation. The drill provided valuable, real-world experience in coordinated truck work and fireground tactics.

A special thank you to the Closter Fire Department for the invitation and for organizing a well-executed and productive training opportunity.
