On Saturday, November 17,
2007, the Doylestown Fire Company took place in an
advanced auto extrication drill presented by ESI.
The drill allowed the members of the company time to
practice their skills in a controlled setting while
allowing for critique by instructors that have many
years of experience. The eight hour class was held
at Garranos Junkyard on Lower State road and
challenged the participants to different styles of
auto accidents. Lunch was provided by Cyndi Truman
and many thanks go to her for all the hard work.
