More on the Unit
So, what are the duties of the search and rescue team of Knoxville Police & Fire Department? Search and rescue operations are designed to look for, assist and carry out a multitude of rescue operations most often relating to locating missing persons. They are the boots-on-the-ground presence responsible for rescuing individuals in danger. From scouring the woods to scaling structurally unsound buildings and open bodies of water, search and rescue relies on being able to balance both research and action to yield the best results. Often operations are split into five stages, the first being information and observation. This step prioritizes the gathering of all relevant factors, from testimonials to last known locations, as well as any other data to provide a rough foundation to the search. The following stages work together to map out a search radius and are designed to help develop the best strategy for rescue or discovery. Searchers are a valuable addition to any police force, and the Knoxville Police & Fire Department is no exception. This month’s coin is a testament to their hard work and dedication as they consistently prove themselves to be an asset to the Knoxville Police Force.
