Peterson Air Force Base firefighters dowse flames coming at them during a joint training exercise recently at the Banning Lewis Ranch, in nearby Colorado Springs. “The building was going to be torn down and hauled away,” said Bill Ritchie, ranch project manager. “We decided to offer it up to the Colorado Springs Fire Department for training and they took it from there. In this case, we helped each other out.” (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Matt Gilreath)
