The East Timor Comoro Airport Soccoros (fire fighters) conduct a crash exercise in Dili.
The Soccoros have been training with the International Stabilisation Force East Timor Aviation Group in areas such as basic first aid, turnout procedures, basic emergency management, aviation crash rescue and fire fighting.
