Feb 19, 2026·1 min read
Earlier this week, the Tallman Fire Department conducted hands-on structure fire training at a vacant home on Church Road in Airmont that was scheduled to be demolished the following morning for new construction.
The property was made available for training purposes by Constar Construction, allowing firefighters to perform realistic drills in a controlled environment. Members trained on various fireground tactics, including gaining entry into a simulated burning structure through doors, windows, and walls.
William P. Faist EMS was on scene throughout the exercise, providing EMS standby to ensure the safety of all participating members.
The Tallman Fire Department thanked both Constar Construction for donating the structure and Faist EMS for standing by and supporting the training, which provided valuable real-world experience for members.
