Firefighters test life-saving skills

Senior Airman Zachary Peterson, 100th Civil Engineer Squadron Fire Department firefighter from Salt Lake City, Utah, holds a C-spine manual stabilization collar on a simulated patient in triage as Staff Sgt. Cory Pitrat, 100th CES Fire Department firefighter from Phoenix, Ariz., immobilizes the simulated casualty on a backboard during an operational readiness exercise March 25, 2013, at the fire training area on RAF Mildenhall, England. Firefighters responded when simulated lightning struck a facility and started a fire. The scenario simulated a person who ran out of the building and got hit by a car, which then hit another car, causing it to overturn with three simulated casualties inside.
