The Tallman Fire Department conducted hands-on structure fire training at a vacant home on Church Road in Airmont that was scheduled for demolition the following morning to make way for new construction.
Constar Construction made the property available for training, giving firefighters a chance to run realistic drills in a controlled environment. Members practiced various fireground tactics, including gaining entry into a simulated burning structure through doors, windows, and walls.
William P. Faist EMS was on scene throughout the exercise, providing standby coverage to ensure the safety of everyone participating. The department thanked Constar Construction for donating the structure and Faist EMS for supporting the training, which gave members valuable real-world experience.
