Monday Night Training - Technical Rescue from an RV

A rare opportunity presented itself in May of 2008 when an old RV was donated to us for firefighter training.  With this unusual vehicle, we conducted some unusual training.  We simulated that a victim was trapped inside the RV but to complicated the rescue scenario, firefighters were told that the RV was hypothetically pin between a wall and a tractor trailer or some other large immovable object.  With all the easy ways in and out of the RV blocked, the only access available was through the roof.  Play this video to see what we did during this training exercise.
