Tonight’s weekly drill focused on searches along the hose line. While following the hose line, members conducted a search of the building. During the search, members encountered several low profile obstacles and an entanglement hazard. Our cadets train just as hard as our regular members and we are extremely proud of them! They are our future!

Last evening, the Neptune City Fire Department Cadet Program had the opportunity to train in an acquired residential structure. Members learned how to stretch and advance hose lines and conduct primary and secondary searches with limited visibility. Members reviewed basic firefighter survival tactics and also had the oppurtunity to practice forcible entry techniques. A HUGE thank you to the Bast and Morcom families for their continued support to the Cadet Program.

Tonight some of our members were invited to join our friends, the Wall Fire Company #1 Cadet program in a joint drill in an acquired structure scheduled to be torn down. Tonight members trained on handling ground ladders, breaching walls, overhaul, and searches. Tonight was great training and members got to learn how to work well with members of other departments. A huge thank you to the West Belmar Fire Department Cadet program for inviting us to be a part of this awesome training.

Some of our dedicated cadets preparing for our New Year’s Day open house. The cadets took time out of their day to help set up, run, and clean up from a great day.

Probationary Firefighters Adams and Pelech had their “Putting it all Together” Day at the Monmouth County Fire Academy as part of Firefighter 1 Class #126. Both of these “probies” began their journey in the fire service with four years in our Cadet Program. We are extremely proud of these two. Keep up the great work and stay safe!
