Lehighton, Pa. — September 29 — Ten members of the Lehighton Fire Department joined crews from the Palmerton Fire Department and Franklin Township Volunteer Fire Company for a Structure Burn Refresher. The live-fire training allowed participants to practice coordinated fire attack, hose line operations, and ventilation techniques in realistic conditions.
These joint sessions help firefighters maintain sharp skills and improve coordination with mutual-aid partners during real emergencies.
