Please take precautions and drink plenty of fluids, stay in air conditioning if possible, and stay out of the sun. Check on family, friends, and neighbors, especially those who may be more heat vulnerable.

We recently held a training on using the Jaws of Life in multiple crash scenarios. This tool helps extricate crash victims quickly and safely. Scissor-like blades can slice through thick metal (such as vehicle roofs and hinges) to create access points, and pincer-like arms can be inserted into narrow gaps to pry doors open or push crushed panels apart. It was a great training for both our fire crew and ambulance crew.

Today we honor all U.S. military personnel who died while serving. "All gave some, some gave all."
