On Tuesday (11/18), the Irvington Fire Department did a hands on extrication training. Members broke in to 2 crews where they practiced extrication skills on 2 cars. This was a great opportunity for some of our newer members to learn the art of extrication as well as older members to fine tune their techniques. Great job by all who showed up!

Units:	Car 2201, Car 2203, E-177 & R-49
