On Thursday night, August 30th, CFD traveled to the Fire Academy in Yaphank once again for more training.

For the second time this year firefighters participated in the "Class A" drill.

This drill simulates a dwelling fire a two-story home. The Drill is held in a specially designed building that replicates a typical residential home similar to those found within the Cutchogue Fire District.

Despite the warm summer weather, Firefighters participated in 2 different evolutions under live fire conditions that tested their skills under the watchful eyes of Suffolk County Fire Academy instructors. Many of these scenarios are designed to replicate real-life situations that firefighters have occurred throughout our nation.

Over 20 CFD firefighters participated in the training session.

The Cutchogue Fire Department like many other fire departments in Suffolk County, routinely travels to the Fire academy several times over the course of the year in order to participate in different training evolutions.
