November 18, 2024

For Monday Night Training on November 18, Limerick crews headed to the Skippack Training Facility to practice primary search, VEIS (vent, enter, isolate, search), and suppression tactics. Crews were split up into groups before proceeding through the evolutions. In the primary search training in the back of the building, firefighters practiced searching a room and utilizing a water can for initial suppression. On the main level for suppression operations, crews practiced different methods of advancing hose lines into a building and extinguishing techniques. Finally, the firefighters practiced entering a room through a second-floor window using a ground ladder for the VEIS scenario. Firefighters from the same group utilized Ladder 51 and positioned it next to the window for quick victim rescue operations and then proceeded to climb the ladder. Crews had a great night of training, thank you to Skippack Fire Company for allowing us to utilize your facility again now that the repairs are complete.
