Lackland Cadets Participate in Emergency Services Class

24 February 2007
Lackland AFB - On February 3rd Lackland Composite Squadron (SWR-TX007) participated in an Emergency Services Class. “Safety is our number one priority!” - a typical saying within the Civil Air Patrol was greatly stressed as part of the recent Emergency Services class which targeted Civil Air Patrol Test 116. The class was taught by Senior Member (SM)/Lt  Col Kowalewski, Group 5 Operations Officer, and was held at the Wilford Hall Medical Center, on Lackland AFB. Fifteen members of the Lackland Cadet Squadron participated in the class that covered a wide range of instructional material such as the Incident Command Structure, Organizational Management, Blood Borne Pathogens, Hazardous Material Identification, and basic info on Search and Rescue. The cadets are currently training for a Field Training Exercise that will be hosted by the Brownsville Composite Squadron later this month.
