Fire Station Outing

All dressed up to meet up with our home school group to visit a fire station on post!

Inside the workout room.  We also got to see where the firefighters cooked, slept, did laundry, and of course played video games!

Margo listening intently to the fire chief!

A fireman in all his gear.

Getting down so that the kids could see his gear and not be frightened by the looks and sounds of it.

Learning to crawl on the ground to stay safe when in smoke and fire!

Getting to meet EMS and walk thru an ambulance.  We got to see all the cool tools they have now including a chest compression machine so you don't have to manually do CPR!

Getting up close with the back of the ambulance.

Outside visiting the ladder truck!

They showed all the hoses and levers of the firetruck and then extended the ladder out for us to see!

Starting to bring up the ladder...

half way up...

All the way extended it can reach the top of anywhere on post except the tower at the airfield.

My little firefighter recruit! :)
