On Saturday, April 19, 2014, officers from DTVFD, observed DTVFD recruits participating in live automotive fire training. Combined with trainees from other departments, these participants are currently enrolled in the Firefighter I and II certification classes at the Public Safety Academy in Nokesville, VA. Upon successful completion of the practical application skills and hundreds of hours of academics and testing; the remaining recruits will ultimately be recognized as certified firefighters in the Commonwealth of Virginia. This fundamental training is the equivalent of which all paid or volunteer firefighters must complete to be certified in the State. Although there is much more to be accomplished, everyone showed all of the requisite proficiency and motivation to carry them on to more advanced training in the fire service to protect the residents and visitors to Prince William County.
