Ah yes... I remember those days of training on one of the reservoirs in Fostoria. We had a sled like thing that had 2 pontoons on the bottom... and you ran between the pontoons. If you broke through there was a paddle with a hook to pull/paddle yourself the rest of the way. Just put the victim between the pontoons and haul them up. There was a strap we put around them that slid along the handrail to get them most of the way out of the water. Then the shore crew would pull you in.
@@Yings58 I worked for Fostoria Fire for 15 years before I broke my brain and had to retire lol. I live just East of Tiffin now. Congrats on a 33 year career! That is awesome!

Hi there Steve. So you are from the Fostoria area?? I also see you were a firefighter. I just retired after 33 years in Toledo.
