The Incident Command System (ICS) is required
teaching for all law enforcement, emergency government, fire
departments, and Homeland Security personnel. Door County veterans
practice ICS' protocols and NIMS' (National Incident Management
System) terminology so they'll be ready to roll during any
natural disaster, terrorist attack, man-made catastrophe, or pandemic.
Veterans do NOT replace professional first responders (fire fighters, law enforcement, emergency government
or Homeland Security personnel). Rather, they provide a "fourth shift"
when professional responders are overwhelmed or burned out, have exhausted
their mutual aid
agreements, or they're called to respond to a more serious community crisis.
Tested under fire, veterans stand ready to roll when their community is
under attack. |

Operation Concealed Carry was a testing/training
war game focused on safeguarding Sister Bay against a possible
terrorist attack, robbery, toxic spill, anthrax scare, or bomb
threat. Veterans conducted a vulnerability assessment and stood
mission-ready to support housing-in-place orders or an order to
evacuate. Veteran followed the same Incident Command and Control
protocols required of law enforcement, fire fighters, and
emergency government.
Because of the
nature of this operation, other than the initial
briefing of law enforcement and emergency government,
all operation protocols, logs, briefings, written plans,
and tutorials are password protected and considered the
exclusive property of The Risk Management Learning
Center. |
