Large exercise of the fire brigade: Emergency services rehearse for an emergency at Stihl in Neustadt!

On Saturday afternoon, May 17, 2025, the Waiblingen volunteer fire brigade carried out a large -scale exercise on the Stihl factory premises in Neustadt. The alarm took place around 2 p.m., and around 80 firefighters and twelve vehicles were involved in this assignment. The purpose of the exercise was preparation for the emergency, which led to an impressive sight when the emergency services arrived, which initially looked like a real use, such as ZVW

The exercise is an important part of the training of firefighters in order to increase their operational capacity and ensure that they can react quickly and effectively even in critical situations. Such exercises are not only instructive, but also challenging and often have to be planned in a limited time frame. This presents the volunteers in particular with a demanding task, as shown in an article by Feuerwehr-Magazin

practice plan and requirements

The idea of ​​creative and varied exercises has been an integral part of fire work for 18 years. The origin is in the "Small Exercises" series, which was launched in 2005 and now includes over 110 different exercises. In this form, firefighters can also submit their own suggestions for which there are premiums of up to 200 euros if the proposals are comprehensively developed.

The requirements for such suggestions are clearly outlined: relevant information about the topic, the required personnel and the equipment, the procedure, the safety of the participants and the exercise goal must be presented. An example from the current issue of the fire brigade magazine is the exercise "Device Studies in a different way" by the Furtweiher fire brigade.

meaning of fire brigade exercises

Exercises such as those in Neustadt are of great importance for the local community, as they ensure that the firefighters are well prepared for possible emergencies. Such events also promote teamwork among the fire brigade members and strengthen the relationship of trust in the group. Only through regular and well -organized exercises can the emergency services ensure that their response times are optimized and their skills are practiced under realistic conditions.

Overall, the implementation of the exercise in Neustadt not only reflects the professionalism of the Waiblingen volunteer fire brigade, but also the commitment of the fire brigades nationwide to develop steadily and to be prepared for all eventualities.
