Maryland internship program trains firefighters of tomorrow

Three firefighters entered a building that simulated a burning third-floor apartment fire. In the training exercise, Bryan Duvall douses the flames with a hose while Tiffany Huber and Riley Becker search for a missing firefighter. The rescuers’ vision is impaired as they grasp for their comrade, who lies limp on the floor. The downed firefighter’s mask is not working properly. It could be broken. Moving quickly, Huber and Becker replace the mask by the feel of their gloved hands and prepare to move the victim. Duvall joins them to lend support. The three start to drag the victim toward the stairwell.
