Crew members practiced hose advance techniques as well as search and rescue protocols in the darkened school building. A full-sized rescue mannequin was placed in one of the classrooms and firefighters had to find the mannequin and bring it safely out of the building. Another team of firefighters practiced hose advance techniques and extinguished the simulated fire.
