Forks Fire used this Monday's drill to practice vehicle rescue. The first couple of evolutions focused on the first few minutes of crews arriving on scene. This included vehicle stabilization, victim access and assessment, and tool staging. The final evolution simulated Forks Fire responding to a multi-vehicle accident with heavy entrapment.
