Taking into account factors such as research advances, expanded capabilities, and changes in regulations and standards, this guide for agencies and individuals provides a framework for establishing and operating heavy rescue companies and special operation units within a fire department. All equipment, tools, and procedures are illustrated with b&w photos. The guide can also be used as a training resource. Part One covers recruiting and staffing, tools and equipment (including air tools), training, the operational plan, and victim care. Part Two gives step-by-step instructions for rescues in specific situations, such as buried victims, high-angle rescues, confined spaces, structural collapse, and water and ice rescues. Part Three supplies appendices of sample forms, operational guidelines, and a tool list. Norman is retired from his position of chief of special operations with the New York Fire Department from 2001 to 2007. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
