On Thursday March 14th. @ 1600 hours the Lewes Fire Department teamed up with DSP Aviation for joint Rescue Helicopter Operations training. The Lewes Members were picked up by DSP Trooper 2 using a "Short Haul" static line from the aircraft and air lifted to various locations. A total of 11 Lewes Members were lifted by harness from land or a rescue basket from a pond. The training simulated moving rescuers to and from a rescue scene in a limited access area. The Lewes Fire Department would like to thank the Delaware State Police Aviation Division & the Delaware State Fire School for the training.
