We had the opportunity to do some real-world training on a donated structure in DeSoto Parish.

Our firefighters conducted live fire training with a strong focus on fire behavior, along with sharpening skills while operating in SCBA and full structural firefighting PPE. We ran multiple live-fire evolutions, building on each rep to keep things safe, controlled, and productive.

After completing the training objectives, we then allowed the structure to burn to the ground to help the property owner remove the building from the property—a win for training and a win for the community.

Training is how we stay ready. Nothing substitutes live fire training when it comes to preparing to perform at the highest level when it counts.
