re: #78 Reality Based Steve

Well I’ve got to go pack some gear up. Our Public Safety Dive Team class is having a simulated “real world” mission tomorrow. They will be chilling at the shop, a call will come in about a car that went into the river. They are going to have to locate the site, evaluate, gear up and execute to discover the vehicle and recover anybody on board (mannequins, I drew the line at being a rescue dummy).

I’ll be acting as dispatcher initially, then kicking into JAFO (Just Another Freaking Observer), along with documenting and photographing everything for later analysis.

I won’t be diving, but was told “bring your gear, just in case something goes bad”. I’m 100% confident that it won’t get wet, this is one time I don’t want to have to jump in.

Nice Blue Thunder reference.
