Downed Officer/Civilian Rescue

7/13/2016
Rescuing a downed officer/civilian who is still in the line of fire is a skill that is not often taught. There may be no time to wait for SWAT or other specialty units if a rescue must take place immediately. This one-day class is designed for the patrol officer and teaches tactics used when a badly wounded officer and/or civilian is still under fire. Live fire practical exercises will include conducting rescue operations, basic responding-officer formations, shield and no-shield rescues, and carrying methods.
