Welcome back, Chief Dall!
Former CRFD Battalion Chief and IA-TF1 Team Leader Dan Dall came back for two days of Wide Area Search refresher training. Chief Dall is a traveling instructor for TEEX, one of the leaders in high-quality USAR training. Topics included geographical referencing, USNG (United States National Grid) and map reading, search markings, and SARCOP.

We are continually looking for ways to become better and operate safer as we protect the citizens of Iowa!
