This morning members showed up bright and early to head to the drill house for our final day of training at this location. We loaded up the apparatus and proceeded to Trinity Church Road.
Teams of three were picked to make entry into the structure. We burned two rooms on the 2nd floor and another 2 rooms on the ground floor of the house. All crews on the scene had plenty of fire before the house was let go. A fun time was had by all.
Thanks to the crews from Hughesville, Mechanicsville, La Plata and Bel Alton for assisting our department when called upon. We would also like to thank the instructors that assisted Newburg.
