Birdsboro, PA - Four members of the BUFD (Birdsboro-Union Fire Department) recently traveled to Upstate New York to participate in advanced vehicle rescue training with Res-Q-Jack. During the training, they worked alongside firefighters and rescue professionals from around the world, including participants from as far as Poland.


Approximately a year ago, BUFD purchased rescue equipment from Res-Q-Jack and has since conducted regular in-house training sessions to ensure all members are familiar with its operation and functionality. The hands-on experience gained in New York allowed these members to deepen their understanding of the equipment and bring back valuable knowledge to share with the rest of the department.
