This week, 18 firemen from all over kentucky and even Tennessee completed a 40 hour HAZMAT Tech class. These firemen battled the heat while being geared up in encapsulated suits to train on how to control and stop simulated hazmat leaks on various types of containers. Thank you to the instructors, kentucky fire commission, and KYEM for the opportunity and also to all the students that didnt let the heat stop them from learning and continuing to push through all week. Great group of firemen and teamwork.
