The Forchheim fire department shines: all 26 test candidates pass with flying colors!
In the fall of 2023, the fire department of the city of Forchheim came together for a special event: the performance test “The group in the rescue operation”. 26 courageous emergency services were put through their paces by chief extinguisher Johannes Gebhardt. On October 31st, in front of the fire department's equipment house, the test was held, which was led by an experienced trio: district fire officer Oliver Flake, district fire inspector Ernst Messingschlager and city fire inspector Jürgen Mittermeier.
The participants showed full commitment. They mastered the tasks with flying colors, and the result is impressive: all 26 graduates passed the exam! KBR Oliver Flake presented the well-deserved achievement badges at a social gathering.

A strong team
With every test passed, the city fire department not only becomes stronger, but also more closely connected. Firefighters sacrifice their free time to help others, showing great courage and commitment. This achievement is not only cause for celebration, but also a testament to the extensive training and outstanding skills of the participants. This shows that the Forchheim fire department can look to the future with a strong force.
The emergency services and their trainers do joint work that goes far beyond the actual tests. There is a lot of training and dedication behind every badge. It's nice to see that the community recognizes and appreciates the efforts of its fire department.
The celebrations are not only a moment of joy, but also a reminder of how important it is to always look out for each other and stick together. After such a challenging year, these successes are even more valuable.
