Rockland County Fire and Emergency Services Recruits Hone Their Skills

Rockland County’s future firefighters are hard at work, dedicating themselves to the rigorous training and education required to become skilled first responders. This week, the recruits focused on mastering the critical technique of hose stretching—a fundamental skill that ensures water can be quickly and efficiently deployed to extinguish fires.

Hose stretching might seem straightforward, but it demands precision, teamwork, and agility to execute effectively, especially under the high-pressure circumstances of an emergency. By repeatedly practicing this technique, the recruits are preparing themselves to respond rapidly and decisively when seconds matter most.

This hands-on training is a testament to the recruits’ commitment to serve and protect Rockland County. Their dedication reflects the qualities we value in our first responders: courage, resilience, and an unwavering drive to safeguard our community.
