ANSBACH, Germany (April 2, 2024) - U.S. Army Garrison (USAG) Ansbach hosted the Bundeswehr Firefighters from the 1st Squadron of the Transport Helicopter Regiment 30, during an exercise at the IMCOM Europe (IMCOM-E) Fire and Emergency Services Regional Training Center on Urlas Kaserne in Middle Franconia mid-March.
Part of the exercise involved the lifting bag technique, in which two lifting bags were placed under a Humvee while stabilizing the left and right sides with wooden blocks, which also helped to lift the Humvee. This is used on flipped vehicles, train wagons or larger trucks to lift them from one side to gain better visibility or to perform rescue maneuvers of occupants trapped inside.
The Bundeswehr Firefighters are from the military fire protection, or “Militärische Brandeinsatzkräfte”, unit based at Niederstetten Air Base, Northeast of Baden-Württemberg.
USAG Ansbach is a U.S. Army Power Projection Platform consisting of aviation, engineering, and artillery assets spread across nine kasernes in the heart of Middle Franconia, Germany.
