After a fairly busy first week of 2021, the last week has been slow, but the first training night of the year was spent working hard on forcible entry skills.
Over the course of several years, QFD has hosted several forcible entry classes with Traditions Training and members have attended multiple others. Tonight we were able to utilize a force door that is owned by Bart Township Fire Company. This gave us some pretty “real-world” experience doing inward and outward two-person force drills. We also used several of the add on props to get a chance to use our new Dewalt battery operated rotary saw and angle grinder for metal cutting.
Next week we will continue doing one-person drills and some through-the-lock drills. Thanks to the 25+ members who turned out and broke a lot of wood.
