Pleasantville, NY - The Briarcliff Manor Fire Department conducted a joint drafting and tanker operations drill alongside Millwood Fire Company, focusing on maintaining water supply in areas without hydrants.
Crews utilized portable pools and static water sources to practice drafting, water transfer, and continuous flow operations, rotating through pump and supply roles to simulate real fireground conditions. Firefighters also trained on hose deployment and advancement to reinforce interior operations.
The training enhanced coordination and preparedness for incidents where reliable water supply is critical, helping crews operate more efficiently during emergencies
