05/21/2015 Low Angle Rescue Training Bridgewater MA
05/21/2015 - BRIDGEWATER, MASSACHUSETTS (PLYMOUTH COUNTY) - On the morning of Thursday, May 21, 2015 the Plymouth County Technical Rescue Team and the National Guard trained together in Bridgewater with low angle rescue equipment. The two organizations worked together to set up anchor points, hauling, lowering systems, and utilized a stokes basket for several evolutions that were held at the campus of Bridgewater State University. The teams were tasked with two different evolutions, that required the "victim" to be brought up a slope. The second evolution had a 5-foot drop at the end, which added an additional element of difficulty.
