The rescue core class is a stepping stone for the rescue tech
cert class. The class was 6 days that ran weekends in Coventry.



Some of the things that we needed to do are build
mechanical advantages, low angle rescue and more.

Water Drill

Three Windhams Drill


Two patients in the water about 2-3 feet out.


Two man rescue team in water suits going out to get them.


Working the boat from South Windham's station.


Jason, one of North Windham's newer members, got
into one of the cold water suits saying, "I can't
swim" and I told him to just float then.


"I made the save. I'm the man. Now get me out of this, it's hot in here."
