It's going to be a real game changer.> >     In April, we are going to have the Drill outside on a Saturday, April 9 from 0800-1200. It going to be a Region V Hospital Drill, to encompass all (hopefully) five counties in the Region (CALV, CHAR, MONT, PRGE and STMA).  It is a Drill where set up our mast kits or whatever you normally use in the field with 40/80 dipoles. There will be one site per county. For PRGE and MONT counties with multiple hospitals, one site each.> >     The main reason is to show Region V ARES solidarity in supporting Region V hospital exercises and  large scale event with all of us playing together. We have supported these exercises in the past, but not as 'combined group,' so why not get all of us 'on the same page' with them? Another first in in the Section.> >     We need to know soon who can be available to support the Drill. Need to know this well in advance to make the logistics an easy flowing task. Hospital Leads contact your Team and get back to me as soon as possible. Non-hospital players on this reflector are certainly invited and encourage to help out. In that area, we would like a few HF ground stations to get messages into the Internet for those running the injects. We are breaking new ground again for the rest of the Section. Let's have a great showing.> >     As a heads up, we are trying for Bowie Hospital Center (BHC) in their  parking lot. Still waiting for approval and confirmation.> >     We have the Drill Plan in ICS-201 (the Incident Briefing Form). All that is lacking is knowing who is playing and from where. We are also planning a few Zoom update meeting along the way as well.> >     More later as it all comes together.   Hope to hear from you soon.> >     tnx es 73, de>     Jim>     WB3KAS>     PRGE ARES EC>     MDC SEC> >     wb3kas at arrl.net mailto:wb3kas at arrl.net> ______________________________________________________________Visit us on the web: https://ares.k3cal.orgCALV-ARES mailing listHome: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/calv-aresHelp: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htmPost: mailto:CALV-ARES at mailman.qth.netThis list hosted by: http://www.qsl.netPlease help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
