They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: 
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. 
At the going down of the sun and in the morning 
We will remember them.

Last week, Mundaring VFRS kicked off its first training night for the year, starting with BA (breathing apparatus) search & rescue.

Simulating a smoke logged structure, the team were put the test through a variety of challenges, including moving in tight spaces, entanglement and dragging hose & other heavy equipment - all while searching for and rescuing casualties in BA without being able to see, and working in a loud, noisy environment.
