NEEDHAM, MA — Needham's newest firefighter is ready to get to work after graduating from the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy's Career Recruit Training Program.
The recruit was among 15 graduates from 14 Massachusetts communities who completed 50 days of rigorous training in Bridgewater, learning to battle fires, conduct search-and-rescue operations, operate ladders and respond to hazardous materials incidents.
For Needham, that means another trained professional ready to respond when residents need help most.
