Actually, no.  As a unit, we need to discuss more seriously and
with attention to logistics if we want to do night searches (eg,
the facility where I board my horse may lock its perimeter gates
at night and I don't know if they are willing to give me a key).
We would need to determine if we have enough interested and able
members that we can usually field at least one team when we are
called;  there is little point training for something we cannot
deliver.  Ditto for hasty searches and several other current SAR
needs/opportunities.  We cannot do everything we might want to
do;  there are not enough of us.
