Department of Homeland Security Regional Disaster Training Exercise
Lift Operations Conference with Crane Operator Jerry Knutson
As much as we all wanted to remove the beam from the vehicles, it was called off for several reasons which were not predictable during pre-planning and time limitations. The day's exercise ran longer than expected. There were no short-cuts taken and everyone's safety came first as this site was a live structure which could have had serious consequences if protocol and procedures weren't followed by all agencies involved. This was a drill, not the real thing. Lessons were learned — which was the whole purpose of the exercise.

An Appleton Post Crescent article stated funding for this training exercise came from a $40,000 Homeland Security grant.

Thanks for visiting GrandQuest.org. I hope you enjoyed this visual presentation and find some comfort and security in knowing that there are men and women whom risk their lives to save ours'.

It's more than just a job, it's a humbling adventure with a potentially life-giving responsibility.
Something to embrace when a disaster occurs. United under God's protection and provision.
