Below is a story of
a Michigan lady whose body was found after she had been missing for
about a month. Age 78 suffering from Alzheimer's. She was
found last Wednesday. She was found a mile away across country from
PLS.
Many of these unsolved
searches end this way where the body is usually found just a little
out of the original search area or the subject was missed completely.
Having talked to those involved with first hand knowledge, I found out that
the area where she was found was open
with small brush. (in other words accessible to MSAR which over all more
areas are accessible to MSAR than not.)
Now one mile from Point Last Seen is not very far.
That brings me to my point that I tried to get across in my posts last
week, that SAR would benefit if MSAR trained more to cover large areas
in a short amount of time vs only training for line searches or small area
searches.
There were bloodhounds involved in this
Michigan search from the start and even though the K9's can do great work
they can also fail and MSAR can not stand by and expect that the K9's will solve
the search because more often than not that is not the case.
MSAR has a lot room
for improvement and covering a lot of ground in a short amount of time is our
strong point. Like I mentioned last
Friday in Improving MSAR 4 AND 5.
Here is a news article from the local paper. http://www.miningjournal.net/news/story/1015202004_new01-n1015.asp TER
