8/23/15 - Somerset live burn training exercise, 12400 Voorhes

On Sunday, August 23, 2015, the Somerset Township Fire Department conducted a live fire training exercise in an old farm house. The structure had been used for previous training exercises which had breached my walls and floors. Firefighters were able to observe the initial fire set and growth and learned about fire behavior before the home was allowed to completely burn. The Ann Arbor Township Fire Department took advantage of the training opportunity by sending a few firefighters to participate.
