Members of Central Emergency Services recently spent three days training with their new extrication and rescue equipment. Firefighters and rescuers are shown using the Rescue 42 Composite TeleCrib Strut System during a simulated car crash at the Peninsula Landfill in Soldotna. The system will be a part of the equipment carried on Rescue One, CES’s newest rescue and extrication vehicle. Personnel also received training with hydraulic cutting tools, combi-tools, the jaws of life, spreaders and mini-cutting tools.
