Halesite Hones Extrication Techniques at Gershow Recycling

Tuesday, August 31, 2010

Members of the Halesite Fire Department conducted two vehicle extrication drils this month at Gershow Recycling in Huntington Station. Ex-Chiefs Mike Magerle and Tom Holly led the training where members honed various stabilization and extrication techniques. Gershow graciously donated several vehicles for training during Halesite's visits to their facility.
