Abstract
A firefighter training device, for training a firefighter proper techniques for breaking and clearing a window, using a frame defining a framed space, a plurality of transparent impact resistant panels which are arranged coplanarly to fill the framed space, and a plurality of panel retaining assemblies which selectively hold the panels in position. Once the panels are formed into a window like configuration, the panels are struck, causing one of the panels to break away as the panel retaining assembly releases that panel. Then, the remaining panels are struck to cause those panels to break away and to simulate the proper action of clearing the window after it has been initially broken. Following the exercise, the panels are restored to the frame so that the exercise may be repeated.
