| A three
member "Veterans Commission" appointed by the Door County Board of
Supervisors hires a "Veteran's Service Officer" to administer veterans
affairs in Door County. There is also a "Veteran's Council" made up of
two representatives from each post. |
| |
| I will attempt
to place a link to Post and League web sites as they're
launched. At this time I recommend you go through the national
web sites at the top of this page. |

All veteran organization Commanders
should be familiar with the Incident Command System. It's now required
teaching for all law enforcement, fire departments, and emergency
government personnel. |
|
Door County
Veterans, many former fire fighters, law enforcement, and EMTs stand
ready to deploy if professional first responders are overwhelmed, show
signs of " burned out", mutual aid agreements are exhausted, or the
incident' duration exceeds 14 days. DCVets deploy under the same
Incident Command System (ICS) used by all US fire fighters, law
enforcement, emergency government, and homeland security personnel.

CIRT' field-training is conducted
during major community events. Veteran' posts closest to "ground zero"
or most involved in the event are used staffing Incident Command,
Safety-Information-Liaison Officers, Chiefs of Operations - Planning -
Logistics and Finance, and Staging Area Managers for Life Safety -
Communications - Transportation/Housing in place, and Recovery -
Reconstruction. Each training exercise begins with a potential
"worst-case-scenario" and "mission statement." Follow are a few examples
of training operations conducted during 2005 and 2006:
