Technical Rescue Operations, Volume I: Planning, Training, and Command is the first in a new rescue series by Larry Collins. Beginning in the early 1980s the fire service experienced the start of a revolution in its approach to rescue. This new methodology has improved the way firefighters and other rescuers are able to detect, locate, treat, and extract trapped victims in practically any situation by emphasizing factors like innovative training, better equipment, and more intelligent planning by well-informed decision makers who constantly ask the question "what if?" Technical Rescue Operations, Volume 1, explains the origins of rescue and guides officers through the process of developing, supervising, and operating a rescue system. This book includes case studies, sample SOGs (standard operating guidelines), sample preplans, and time-proven methods of managing a wide variety of technical rescue and search operations
