Mounted search and rescue

["Marie Lester" <marie.lester@gmail.com>]

Our unit has now worked with TES twice, and in both cases TES did not
supply searchers.  Tim Miller and his group supported the distraught
families, met with the media and fueled public interest in the
searches.  This resulted in more volunteers coming out and heightened
awareness.
We did work with volunteers who were not trained in SAR, however the
officials put us in charge.  Tim Miller communicated directly with our
President, Cathy Gough.
