Last night, the Lucketts Volunteer Fire Company Support Services Unit conducted our “Station Sustain – River Surge 2026” Functional Exercise focused on multi-site support operations during a simulated large-scale Potomac River rescue incident.
Members operated simultaneously at McKimmey’s Landing Boat Ramp and Piscataway Crossing Regional Park, deploying REHABSU610, U610C, ISU610, and EMSUTV610 to test:
• Rehab and responder support operations
• Multi-site coordination
• Communications and ICS integration
• Lighting and generator operations
• Logistics and sustainment
• Accountability and operational adaptability
The exercise included real-world weather challenges, operational injects, equipment issues, and responder medical scenarios designed to strengthen our readiness for extended-duration incidents.
Huge thank you to all of the members who participated and helped make the drill a success.
And sometimes training gives you a reminder of why we do this. ending the evening under a full rainbow over the incident support trailer wasn’t a bad way to wrap up the night.
