Civil Engineers Hone Search, Rescue Skills at Combat Town
When disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes or even a bombing devastate a city, someone has to sift through the rubble and look for survivors. A group of civil engineers recently journeyed here in order to prepare themselves to do just that. The System To Locate Survivors (STOLS) team which consist of 12 civil engineers from the Japan Engineer District (JED) from Camp Zama in mainland Japan, and three civil engineers from Honolulu, Hawaii, was formed approximately one-year ago. They came to Combat Town here to conduct three days of search and rescue operations to sharpen their skills and give the new members of the team some field experience.
