During April of 2009, 3 groups of members from Local 772 attended crash rescue training in Westover, Massachusetts. We were invited by the ANG Station 3 guys (BIA) to join them for the training. Over the years, we have had members attend training around the country, with our brothers and sisters from the airport.

All of the training was done at the Westover Air Force base, and we also worked with members from the base down there. Training that we did included: Driving and operation of the crash trucks, vehicle placement, turret operation, hand line operations that included interior and exterior evolutions.

Thanks to Captain Glenn Williamson, Chief West and A/C Libby for being our hosts and teachers.Also thanks to our hosts at the Westover AFB.
