Operation Whiteout. A snow storm is said to strike an area in Colorado. A High School is set up as a gathering point for those in need of aid. (Yes FEMA)
A call goes out to those that can respond to arrive at a near by bldg to set up search and rescue procedure. A portion of the schools roof collapsed due to the 4' snow fall. Your duty is to team up and scout out the undamaged portions of the bldg to locate survivors.
The method is one that is learned through CERT training. This was an actual trial. They moulaged victims and 'placed' them in areas of the school.
I assumed the point of Triage. As the rescue teams returned from their points of inquiry with the injured. I placed, tagged and cared those according to the severity of injuries.
This went on for 3 and 1/2 hrs. Can you say intense and very enlightening.
This type of training/certification is key for the prepping community. I will be applying for membership to OMEGA for further training in the fields of search and rescue. Fields being medical, vertical and cave have my keen interest.
