Announcement:
Russell Alton Hedrick, son of the late Raymond Alton Hedrick and Mary Faith
Hedrick, was born on July 26, 1926 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Surrounded

Mr. Hedrick was a long-time educator who once taught in a country school
near Parma and later served as an elementary teacher and Administrator in

Event: Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Training
DateTime: March 15 and 16, 2008
Announcement:
ARE YOU PREPARED
In Cooperation with:
State Emergency Management Agency Federal Emergency Management Agency
About CERT
Introduction
Following a major disaster, first responders who provide fire and medical
services will not be able to meet the demand for these services. Factors as
number of victims, communication failures, and road blockages will prevent
people from accessing emergency services they have come to expect at a moment's
notice through 911. People will have to rely on each other for help in order to
meet their immediate life saving and life sustaining needs.
One also expects that under these kinds of conditions, family members, fellow
employees, and neighbors will spontaneously try to help each other. This was the
case following the Mexico City earthquake where untrained, spontaneous
volunteers saved 800 people. However, 100 people lost their lives while
attempting to save others. This is a high price to pay and is preventable
through training.
If we can predict that emergency services will not meet immediate needs
following a major disaster, especially if there is no warning as in an
earthquake, and people will spontaneously volunteer, what can government do to
prepare citizens for this eventuality?
First, present citizens the facts about what to expect following a major
disaster in terms of immediate services. Second, give the message about their
responsibility for mitigation and preparedness. Third, train them in needed life
saving skills with emphasis on decision making skills, rescuer safety, and doing
the greatest good for the greatest number. Fourth, organize teams so that they
are an extension of first responder services offering immediate help to victims
until professional services arrive.
Background
The Community Emergency Response Team concept was developed and implemented
by the Los Angeles City Fire Department (LAFD) in 1985. The Whittier Narrows
earthquake in 1987 underscored the area-wide threat of a major disaster in
California. Further, it confirmed the need for training civilians to meet their
immediate needs. As a result, the LAFD created the Disaster Preparedness
Division with the purpose of training citizens and private and government
employees.
The training program that LAFD initiated makes good sense and furthers the
process of citizens understanding their responsibility in preparing for
disaster. It also increases their ability to safely help themselves, their
family and their neighbors. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
recognizes the importance of preparing citizens. The Emergency Management
Institute (EMI) and the National Fire Academy adopted and expanded the CERT
materials believing them applicable to all hazards.
The CERT course will benefit any citizen who takes it. This individual will
be better prepared to respond to and cope with the aftermath of a disaster.
Additionally, if a community wants to supplement its response capability after a
disaster, civilians can be recruited and trained as neighborhood, business, and
government teams that, in essence, will be auxiliary responders. These groups
can provide immediate assistance to victims in their area, organize spontaneous
volunteers who have not had the training, and collect disaster intelligence that
will assist professional responders with prioritization and allocation of
resources following a disaster. Since 1993 when this training was made available
nationally by FEMA, communities in 28 States and Puerto Rico have conducted CERT
training.
Delivery
The CERT course is delivered in the community by a team of first responders
who have the requisite knowledge and skills to instruct the sessions. It is
suggested that the instructors complete a CERT Train-the-Trainer (TTT) conducted
by their State Training Office for Emergency Management or the Emergency
Management Institute in order to learn the training techniques that are used
successfully by the LAFD.
The CERT training for community groups is usually delivered in 2 1/2 hour
sessions, one evening a week over a 7 week period or a full weekend course. The
training consists of the following:
• Session I, DISASTER PREPAREDNESS: Addresses hazards to which people
are vulnerable in their community. Materials cover actions that participants and
their families take before, during, and after a disaster. As the session
progresses, the instructor begins to explore an expanded response role for
civilians in that they should begin to consider themselves disaster workers.
Since they will want to help their family members and neighbors, this training
can help them operate in a safe and appropriate manner. The CERT concept and
organization are discussed as well as applicable laws governing volunteers in
that jurisdiction.
• Session II, DISASTER FIRE SUPPRESSION: Briefly covers fire
chemistry, hazardous materials, fire hazards, and fire suppression strategies.
However, the thrust of this session is the safe use of fire extinguishers,
sizing up the situation, controlling utilities, and extinguishing a small fire.
• Session III, DISASTER MEDICAL OPERATIONS PART I: Participants
practice diagnosing and treating airway obstruction, bleeding, and shock by
using simple triage and rapid treatment techniques.
• Session IV, DISASTER MEDICAL OPERATIONS, PART II: Covers evaluating
patients by doing a head to toe assessment, establishing a medical treatment
area, performing basic first aid, and practicing in a safe and sanitary manner.
• Session V, LIGHT SEARCH AND RESCUE OPERATIONS: Participants learn
about search and rescue planning, size-up, search techniques, rescue techniques,
and most important, rescuer safety.
• Session VI, DISASTER PSYCHOLOGY AND TEAM ORGANIZATION: Covers signs
and symptoms that might be experienced by the disaster victim and worker. It
addresses CERT organization and management principles and the need for
documentation.
• Session VII, COURSE REVIEW AND DISASTER SIMULATION: Participants
review their answers from a take home examination. Finally, they practice the
skills that they have learned during the previous six sessions in disaster
activity.
A class is being offered for New Madrid County residents in Portageville
Missouri on March the 15th and 16th from 8am to 4pm both days. Refreshments will
be provided. If interested please contact me for admission.

Announcement
For those of you that have not heard; Kenneth (Kenny) Melton, Class of 1956 was killed in a farm accident at his home in Cheneyville, LA. As I understand from the little I know about this incident, a tractor somehow backed over him. As I further understand, from the news account, he apparently died enroute to the hospital.
There will be a memorial service for Kenny in Alexandria, LA for friends who knew him there. He will then be sent to Watkins Funeral Homne in Parma, MO for visitation for relatives and friends Tue 2 Sep. Visitation will be from 1100 am to 1300 (1:00pm). If you can be there, your presence will be greatly appreciated. He will be buried on Wed 3 Sep at Senath, MO. His Mother and Father are believed to be buried there.
I for one, and I know everyone in the Class of 1956 and Kennys' other friends will certainly miss Kenny. Please join all of us in prayers for Kennys' family.
The link below is to the hometown newspaper with the account of the accident. One can highlight, copy, and paste to read the offical account and the pictures. I hope I copied the link correctly. If not just go to WWW.thetowntalk.com and click on the news icon.
In 1998 on my return trip from Ft. Sam Houston, TX, I detoured through Cheneyvill, LA and visited overnight with Kenny. My visit was extremely enjoyable. I must say if Kenny was not as satisfied, content, happy, and laid back as he appeared to be, he certainly fooled me. He was as usual quiet, calm, and seemed to be very content in his position (job) on the farm where he resided. As usual also, he never got in a hurry, and calm as always.
James Brown

Hi to all you web surfers,
I was putting the photographs into the "Down Home Days" section of our website and somehow messed it up. Our oldest Son, ETC(SW) George S. Husted in on a ship that is in port today and he is going to try to straighten it out.
I have some good shots and am looking forward to putting them in. However, I am going on vacation Tuesday, July 15th, so it may be a while.
Regretfully yours,
