An Arlington County firefighter rappels from a mock building within the Alexandria Waste Water Treatment Facility in Alexandria Aug. 5 during a joint training exercise with the Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall and Alexandria County Fire Departments. Emergency responders were taught to hook their left leg on a window sill to ease their way into a decent away from a burning room.
