Four Afghan public safety officers are in Fresno this week to learn from their Fresno Fire Department counterparts through a unique training program sponsored by Brotherhood of the Badge. The four officers serve as police officers and firefighters in Kabul, and the goal of the training is to improve the skills needed back home in Afghanistan. The men will learn how to read and fight fire with newer, donated, equipment, and life saving techniques such as extrication and water rescue. October 24, 2009
