Irv Lichtenstein From: msar-riders-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:msar-riders-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Ruthie Franczek Does anyone know about training a horse to scent or even if it can be done? From: hosenfefer72@hotmail.com Team 1 One first aid kit 2 One lightweight rain poncho or a large plastic leaf bag From: tfinkle@erols.com Howdy folks, I am seeking input from our group of experienced MSAR Riders for assistance developing the NASAR Mounted SAR Tech-III, 10 Essentials list that will be carried by a mounted searcher. It is likely this list will be commonly accepted as the (minimum) uniformed baseline, for what is carried on the MSAR responder. We are also looking at the list with the items order of importance, so please feel free to provide comments. If you would like to substitute something on this , please suggest what to remove. NOTE: This list does not to replace the SAR pack and/or gear that is commonly carried on the horse, but is the 10 essentials to be carried by a rider while on a SAR Mission or during training. Ten Essentials List are being developed for most specialty SAR responders 1. One 20 ounce bottle of water or water bladder 2. One lightweight rain poncho or a large plastic leaf bag 3. One space blanket 4. Two energy bars 5. Fire Starter 6. One basic first aid kit 7. One folding knife or multi-tool 8. One whistle 9. One Compass 10. Two small flashlights PS: Please think of this list as if a horse returned to the Command Post without its rider. The IC will have some knowledge of what items will be in possession of the rider, which will aid determining with a survivability factor of the missing rider (the term rider is used since the responder would become another missing subject of the mission) Thank you, T'mi
