On Tuesday, May 13, around 8:30 a.m., Limerick firefighters, along with staff from the Limerick Township Fire Marshal's Office, conducted a training exercise at an old house slated for demolition on Main Street. The training focused on hoseline advancement, forcible entry techniques, VES (Vent, Enter, Search), breaching walls and windows, and improving radio communications. The goal was to provide crews with a realistic residential simulation, presenting challenges such as tight spaces, corners, and obstacles. Firefighters practiced advancing hose lines inside, communicating effectively over the radio, and forcing entry through doors, among other critical tasks. |
