Yesterday, our Fire Academy cadets put their skills to work training with salvage covers—an essential technique used to protect property and minimize damage during emergency incidents. 🚒

From proper deployment methods to teamwork and efficiency under pressure, these future firefighters continue sharpening the hands-on skills needed in the fire service every day.

🚨 Hands-on. High-impact. Real-world training! 🚨

Today, with the assistance of Dirty Irons/TNT, cadets at the Regional Center for Public Safety Excellence got after it during vehicle extrication training! 🚗🔧💥

From cutting and spreading to coordinated team operations, these cadets put their skills to the test—working with precision, communication, and urgency to simulate life-saving rescues under pressure. This is where training meets reality.

A huge thank you to Dirty Irons/TNT for their continued support and partnership in helping us build confident, capable, and mission-ready public safety professionals! 💪🚒
