First 2019 training program kicks off

This morning a group of Fire Observers gathered at Brussels Airport to depart for the first training program of 2019.

For many years the selected department was on our to do list and today the day has come to work with and learn from Tampa Fire Rescue in the great state of Florida.

Our members will be assigned to the busiest units and stations in town to respond with their Tampa colleagues towards various emergency calls. As usual there’re some work related visits and training on the agenda as well.

At the end of this training program in Tampa they will tour for another few days throughout Florida as tourists. They will stay at places like Orlando, Daytona Beach, Miami and the Florida Keys for example.

On March 16th they will also march up in the Delray Beach St Patrick’s Day Parade.

The group is set to return on March 19th.
