Congrats!

Allan Dries

In December 2025, Allan Dries completed the Firefighter Training Series, also know as Firefighter Boot Camp, offered at the Cortland County Regional Training Center. This 170-hour training program, with 54 units and intense classes (see below), is physically and mentally demanding. Participants learn the necessary skills to fight fires, including on-scene operations, using a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), fire behavior, and much more as well as most importantly, firefighter safety.

Dryden Fire is grateful for Allan’s dedication and commitment to the fire service. We are proud of his impressive accomplishment!
