Deepwater Fire Department

Deepwater Fire Department held advanced extrication training on Oct 12th and 13th of 2013. The location was in Deepwater at the C Coral facility owned by Dupont Chambers Works. The Deepwater Fire Department worked in conjunction with other local fire departments to ensure this training was beneficial to the local firefighters and citizens to improve the local firefighter’s abilities to help those involved in motor vehicle crashes traveling our roadways.

On September 18 2013 Rescue 7 was dispatched along with Station and Squad 11 to the New Jersey Turnpike prior to the tolls for a Motor Vehicle Crash with entrapment. Intial report was Tractor Trailer vs Car. Rescue 7 arrived at 1854 finding a commerical delivery truck off the roadway into a tree also requesting a chopper due to nature of the injuries to the single patient. Rescue 7 extricated the victim from the commercial vehicle along with Rescue 11's crew. Engine 7 was brought onto the Turnpike to handle the Landing Zone. Medivac 5 transported the patient to Christiana ER.

Station 7 takes a day to enjoy the great weather at the Sportsman's Club.
