Milford Firefighters voluntarily did the Oakland Physical Agility Test (OPAT) yesterday. This test is used throughout the county and state to test new hire and probationary candidates to make sure they are strong and fit enough to withstand the demands of the job. Milford’s senior firefighters did it yesterday to show solidarity with the next generation of firefighters, as well as to prove our commitment to the citizens of Milford that fitness isn’t just a one time test at the beginning of our careers, but an ongoing lifestyle to continue to do our jobs to the best of our abilities. Thanks to The Forge Functional Fitness & Health for helping us to stay in our best physical form and to Oakland Community College Fire/EMS Training for facilitating our tests.
