Our ambitions include profiling individual organizations across and outside the country – and to try to develop some comparative measures of risk and readiness. Our principal, and selfish reason, is so that New York area – and particularly Brooklyn emergency responders, can learn from each other. But we’re detemined to do it so cleverly that it looks
like we’re providing information useful anywhere. For the moment – we’ll do this in an ad hoc way. Since the Barbecue Recipe heiress is, at the moment, visiting her folks in Lawrence, Kansas, I thought I’d look a bit at emergency response teams in that neck of the woods. (It’s my understanding of the terms of my marriage, and family tradition, that, once I’ve mentioned Lawrence, I’ve also got to say “Go Jay Hawks!” So there it is). Following is the logo of Rampart Search and Rescue – a/k/a Kansas-Missouri Light Rescue Team.
