Five Croton firefighters spent the summer solstice in full gear working heavy equipment to complete an important part of their life-saving training.
From Croton-on-Hudson Fire Chief John Munson, as posted on their website:
On this gorgeous, first Saturday of Summer, five of Croton's bravest completed the New York State Accident Victim Extrication Training Course. The sixteen hour program features a combination of classroom discussion and practical hands-on evolution's reviewing how to stabilize, pry and cut open vehicles involved in serious collisions. The training was held at two different locations - the Westchester County Fire Training Center in Valhalla and their Satellite location at the Katonah Fire Department over a couple of evenings this week, culminating today.
Completing this course were the following Croton-on-Hudson FD volunteers;
Ivan Crespo (E119)
Josh Karpoff (R18)
Tom Mosler (E118)
Ashley Roosa (E119)
Matt Stewart (E119)
