RANDALL’S ISLAND, N.Y. – Marines with Initial Response Force B, Chemical Biological Incident Response Force remove the roof of a van during cross training in vehicle extrication from New York City Fire Department’s Special Operations Command fire fighters. Marines and sailors of CBIRF went through a week-long training evolution to involve vehicle extrication, rope rescue, and breaching and breaking through concrete. CBIRF’s Marines and sailors have trained with FDNY since July of 2000. Deputy Chief Raymond M. Downey, of FDNY’s SOC, helped CBIRF develop their technical rescue program before he later died on 9/11 in the World Trade Center towers. (released)
