Framingham's Newest Fire Fighters

On May 14th 2013, the Framingham Fire Department's 10 newest firefighters on probation completed their two weeks of training. Under the direction of Captain Dutcher, the FFOP's were given an intense basic training program that consisted of several lectures on basic firefighter skills and rigerous hands on practical evolutions. Their training culminated in two days of live fire training evolutions at the Milford Fire Department's burn building where they were joined by two FFOP's who were hired several months earlier. All members have been given temporary assignments pending their completion of the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy's recruit training program.
