CTC Students Participate in Live Fire Training in Belton

On April 18th, the Rock Springs Fire Department invited the Belton Fire Department to train with them in a live fire training evolution in an acquired structure.  Three CTC students (Stephen Eller, J.D. Greene, and Cale "Swell" Sewell) and the instructor participated in the training.  All three of the students were allowed to perform fire attack and search inside the burning structure.  The live fire training allowed the students to get a more realistic view of fighting a structure fire than a burn building can provide.  All of the students had a great time and did an excellent job.  A special thanks goes to the Rock Springs Fire Department for their continued support of the CTC Firefighting Program and to Sherry Guy for doing a great job photographing the fire.
