Tanker Shuttle Drill

July 31, 2006


For the normal Monday-night drill, the Hebron Volunteer Fire Department practiced tanker shuttle runs at Company 2.  Inviting Columbia's new Tanker 105 and East Hampton's tanker, the fire departments ran a tanker shuttle run between Company 2 and Sunnyside Farms where a draft site was established on the pond.
