On my way out of the College Park airport, I looked over to see this building on fire. Of course I knew that this building was part of the Maryland Fire and Rescue Institute, so I assumed that the fire and its suppression were probably a planned training exercise. I was excited though becasue I’ve never seen this place while it was in action. Perhaps the rain on sunday provided good conditions for these sorts of exercieses.
The insitute is a part of the University of Maryland designed to offer training to all realms of emergency service personnel. They offer many clases on-site, off, and virturally to all branches of service.
