1995 - New Recruit Training Cumberland MD, FD
#1
While digging thru my stacks of negatives, I ran across a set taken at the Maryland Fire Rescue Institute Training Center in Cresaptown, Md of some recent new hires for Cumberland City going thru live fire training.

 

These photos were taken in 1995.

 

The new hires attacking a car fire prop.

Pretty neat to see Chris' open-cab Mack when it was still in service.
