This from Steve Redick:

I was lucky enough to be able to attend a live-fire training exercise at a vacant motel complex in Niles recently. I got some really nice images and wanted to share a few plus a short video.

This from John Tulipano:

I had a great opportunity to attend a NIPSTA live-fire training drill at a vacant motel in Niles on Friday, along with Steve Redick and Tim Olk. What a great opportunity as a fire photographer to get some great images while watching the young candidates were put through their paces.
