La Grange Park Live-Fire Training, 10/4/15

This from Eric Haak:

I had the privilege of attending live-fire training in La Grange Park Sunday morning (10/04).  Crews from the La Grange and La Grange Park fire departments did multiple evolutions simulating fires on the first and second floors of the frame structure.  The home was being torn down in order to make way for a new residence on the lot and was the oldest house in that part of La Grange Park.  The granddaughter of the original owners was on the scene and told me that she remembered when cows used to make their way down the dirt road in front.  While things were smoking up early in the evolutions, a raccoon surprised everyone by emerging from the eaves and making a run for it before things got too hot.  Thanks to all companies on the scene for their hospitality.
