Do you have any time in the trenches responding to emergencies?
What we saw last week was crazy I'll give you that. Are we thankful for the citizen responders, yes. Was it annoying when citizens got in the way and pushed wakes that made the situation more dangerous? Yes. Would an organized force have been more beneficial? Yes.
Can this be done? Yes.
Is there a program already like this out there..... I'll give you a second and you can guess this one......
Yes!

Wow this isn't hurting anything and amazingly they work! But if you were involved in regional disaster response you would know all of these things!

I haven't had any official mass emergency response training but the training I do have and the on scene learning I do have tells me this. If you wait people die. Sometimes you have to make a choice. Wait for orders or do what your heart tells you to do.
