Improving MSAR Part 1
Does MSAR need to be improved?
Below see headlines of a lost 12 year old
boy.
The
Search for Garrett Bardsley
Three weeks after his disappearance, sheriff's deputies searching for Garrett Bardsley say there's no reason to think he's anywhere but lost, and deceased in the high Uintas. Searchers will return to the area this weekend. (Sep 10, 2004)
For those unfamiliar with this
case, Garrett is a boy scout who became lost after leaving his
father who was fishing and walking a short way back to their camp in the
wilderness. There was a major search effort that took place the same day as
well as weeks following. Both MSAR and two different K9 SAR
teams were involved.
To date I do not
believe Garrett has been found.
(Although I am
sure all SAR personnel involved did the best they could with the current
traditional training available to them.) When you are reading current head lines
like the above, the only correct answer to the
question does MSAR needs to be
improved, is
YES!
