DOVER AIR FORCE BASE, Del. -- Flames erupt from a crashed plane. The smell of fuel fills the air. Everyone flees the scene while firefighters run towards it. At Dover Air Force Base, 436th Airlift Wing firefighters train with live fires and practice with equipment to prepare for this moment.

The Dover Air Force Base Fire Department has a live-fire training facility that simulates a plane crash and helps firefighters get hands-on experience fighting fires from inside a truck and on foot. Many other military bases and civilian fire departments do not have access to these resources. So the Dover Air Force Base Fire Department offers their facility as a training hub to help other bases and local civilian fire departments.

One of the most recent live-fire training collaborations was with the 177th Fighter Wing of the New Jersey Air National Guard on Sept. 22, 2020. Tech. Sgt. Ryan Fogarty, 177th Civil Engineer Squadron fire emergency services station captain, helped coordinate the collaborative training. Fogarty cites his history and connection to Dover as a major help in organizing this Total Force training.

U.S. Marines with Charlie Battery, 3d Battalion, 12th Marine Regiment, 3d Marine Division, conduct "Live Fire" training with an M777A2 155mm Howitzer as a part of the Artillery Relocation Training Program 20.3 at Combined Arms Training Center, Camp Fuji, Japan, Oct. 20, 2020. Marines worked in teams to sharpen their skills with these weapons systems, strenthening combat readiness. This training contributes to the defense of Japan and the U.S.-Japan Alliance as the cornerstone of peace and security in the Indo-Pacific region. The skills developed at ARTP increase the lethality and proficiency of the only permanently forward-deployed artillery unit in the Marine Corps, enabling them to provide precision indirect fires.
