Mehlville Fire Protection District firefighters spent two days last week performing training exercises in the district’s new No. 3 firehouse on South Lindbergh Boulevard. Firefighters spent May 23 and May 24 practicing internal and ex-ternal rope rescue drills, according to Chief Brian Hendricks. ‘… The building worked beautifully, just as designed …,’ Hendricks told the Board of Directors. An open house for the new 8,000-square-foot, three-bay firehouse took place April 28. Above, firefighter John Jones, on rope, performs a rope rescue drill.
