Warm days, melting ice make for good training weather for Rome firefighters

All members of the Rome Fire Department are trained in ice water rescue, and the chief said they re-train for it every year. The department has several dry suits for the firefighters to wear in the water, and then an ice water rescue sled, which slides out onto the ice and water to reach the person in danger.
