A huge thank you to Instructor John Lightly of Insight Fire Training for an outstanding class today on thermal imagers and their applications. Thermal imaging is an incredibly important tool our crews rely on to search for victims, locate hidden fire, maintain situational awareness, and make critical tactical decisions on the fireground. Chief Lightly's expertise and instruction will make our teams better prepared for whatever emergencies we respond to.

We also want to extend our sincere gratitude to our local Howland Home Depot for generously supplying all of the building materials needed to construct two small training structures for this two-day training evolution. Your continued support means everything to us!
