    DEERFIELD TWP.--Having the ability to maneuver through dark crawl spaces or getting through a tight squeeze in full turnout gear are just some of the techniques firefighters must learn.

    Firefighters from throughout the area demonstrated the use of a "survival simulator" at the Cumberland County Fire Training Center Wednesday morning.

    The simulator was designed to go along with a 15-hour training course for the 39 firefighters at the school looking to qualify for the county's Firefighter Assistance Search Team.
