Over the last two weekends, three members of Rockhill VFD attended and completed the VDFP Vehicle Rescue Technician class. This class teaches how to complete stabilizations and extrications from accidents involving heavy trucks and like vehicles. Learning to work hand in hand with local Wrecker and Salvage companies make these type of complicated logistical rescues be completed both safely and swiftly. The members that completed this course are:

Franklin Regional School (10-11 Apr 10):

   Sgt J. O'Meara

Warren County (17-18 Apr 10) :

   FF D. Chubb

   FF P. O'Meara
