Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni
April 9, 2019 | 4:03
Firefighters with Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Iwakuni Fire Department conduct the rescue of a simulated casualty trapped in an escalator during an escalator rescue drill at MCAS Iwakuni, Japan, April 9, 2019. The firefighters used an escalator in the old Marine Corps exchange because the building is slated for demolition later this year. This was a unique training experience for the firefighters because many had never conducted escalator rescue drills mostly due to high repair costs that come with the training.
