Sometimes even firefighters need assistance, but who’s willing to go in and help them?
The ones that do comprise RIT or RIC teams. What does that acronym stand for?
Rapid intervention teams (RITs) or rapid intervention crews (RICs) are teams of firefighters who act as standby rescuers on a fire scene.
Monday Oct. 28 2024 Station 36 members trained on, Simulated down firefighter in a burning structure at our training center.
Firefighters entered the structure in teams of three to search for the down firefighter with the presence of artificial smoke and rescued the
down firefighter. It was a good night of training for our seasoned firefighters and our newest Volunteers.
