Bulletin:
The National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) has issued an
urgent bulletin.
TREMOR teams
have successfully located the stranded 5th quake team
(reference
GC120DD
and GC123BA).
The 5th team must now reach the extraction
point for rescue.
Scope of Extraction
Jumping off point will be the posted coordinates at
N40° 48.056 W074° 31.827. This will be your staging
area.
Rescue protocol calls for the plotting of 3 points so
the rescue team can easily extract the 5th
team.
By plotting the coordinates derived for the Quake
epicenter (GC120DD), the coordinates calculated to locate the
Lost team (GC123BA) and the coordinates
from this Staging Area, the Rescue Triangle has been
described. The
5th team has been instructed to meet you at the center
of the Rescue Triangle.
See Chart for plotting example.
