They start 2km run at 7:30 in the morning. Afterwards, they lay fire hoses, use chain saws, practice military gesture and other training. No matter how tough the weather is, they keep on training to challenge themselves and make good preparation for actual firefighting.

In addition to regular technological means, they also learn advanced experience for forest fire prevention and firefighting. Modern means like the application of macromolecule gel fire retardant, carrying soldiers by air and scouting the fire by UAV, are applied to fight against forest fire.

When talking about Jinyun Mountain, many people may think of a great vacation. However, the team is busy every July to September, the period with high fire danger. They have to patrol the mountain and surrounding key forest areas with equipment. Firefighters with equipment can practice their skills and effectively protect the forest fire security of key areas.

The number of team members will be increased from 41 to 80 to form a backbone force of ground emergency rescue. Some competent persons will be selected to form a forest aviation fire special team who will stand by at airports for 24 hours to do special tasks like carrying soldiers and goods, doing investigation and doing air rescue.
