This week, several members of Pine Burr FD had the privilege of attending the annual Mississippi Fire Fighters Association (MFFA) Conference. During the conference, members participated in business meetings, including the discussion of old and new business and the election of officers. Attendees also took part in a variety of educational classes designed to expand their knowledge and enhance their skills as firefighters. One of the most meaningful events of the week was the solemn and moving memorial service honoring Mississippi firefighters who have passed over the past year. Members also had the opportunity to explore the vendor exhibits, where they viewed and tested the latest advancements in firefighting equipment and technology. Overall, it was a valuable and rewarding experience, and a great time was had by all.

On Thursday, March 19th, members of Pine Burr Fire Department held our monthly training meeting. The training focused on engine and tanker operations. During engine operations, we reviewed the fundamentals of flowing water from crosslays and the deck gun. For tanker operations, we practiced supplying water from tanker discharges to the engine while maintaining an adequate and consistent flow to match the engine’s pumping capacity. Additionally, we practiced victim drag techniques using webbing and conducted two-minute dressing drills to improve speed and efficiency.
