Hillsborough Community College DC-2 Fire Academy Live Structure Burn
|
Hillsborough
Community College Fire Academy Class (DC-2) conducted their live
structure burn, as a capstone to their training. After nearly 20
grueling weeks of training every day in the hot Florida sun, these fine
men and women are well on their way to becoming Florida State Certified
Firefighters. Thanks to Chief Mike Shladrauff and Chief Fred
Beckner of Citrus County Fire Rescue for making their burn simulator
available.
