Jeonnam 119 Special Response Team, Working Hard to Strengthen Water Accident Response Capabilities
Joint Rescue Training Conducted by Special Rescue Team and Aviation Unit
The Jeonnam 119 Special Response Team (Commander Park Yong-ju) is dedicated to three-dimensional rescue training through water and air.
According to the Jeonnam Fire Headquarters on the 23rd, the 119 Special Rescue Team and the 119 Aviation Unit jointly conducted special rescue training for water-related accidents on that day.
To expand the scope of mission execution and improve response to various water-related accidents, they moved beyond the 119 Aviation Unit's independent aerial water rescue training and conducted joint training with the 119 Special Rescue Team.
Using diverse and proactive equipment such as standard diving gear, emergency diving equipment, and personal emergency respirators, they ensured safety for both rescuers and rescuees and cultivated the ability to respond to different types of accidents.
Additionally, they enhanced their capability to perform safe and swift missions by approaching rescuees using boats and diving equipment for surface rescue, as well as aerial rescue using hoists and water rescue straps.
