On December 20th, Andover Fire Rescue's Engine 1 and Ambulance 1 trained a probationary firefighter. Crews went over basic fireground skills, such as setting up a hose line, connecting to a hydrant and operating a simple pump. During first-due engine operations, safe and effective procedures are crucial, and this was the main focus of the instruction. While crews were training, Unit 4 was on duty and provided coverage.
