Thursday, July 2, 2015

On April 21, 2012, the Dover Fire Department, along with the Hartly VFC, Cheswold VFC and Marydel VFC  conducted a live fire training exercise in a one and a half-story single-family dwelling on Forest Ave. Two structures were available; however, one house had been compromised by a suspicious fire earlier in the week.  Crews were able to run several live fire evolutions in the remaining house. Crews also received additional training in Truck Co. operations, RIT, and driver/operator training.  After the training evolutions were completed, the houses were burnt to the ground
