Training for the newly arrived firefighting trucks begins today, enhancing the Fire Brigade’s capabilities. Thirty firefighters will undergo operational training led by Guido Vermier, an engineer from supplier EAGLE International, who is conducting equipment checks.
The fleet includes Volvo trucks and a Mercedes ladder truck, customized with specialized tools for local conditions. Unlike standard fire trucks, these vehicles feature advanced rescue tools requested by the department.
The trucks will be commissioned on March 7th, officially entering service. This upgrade, in collaboration with EAGLE International, strengthens firefighting efforts, including at St John’s Fire Station.
