HOW LARGE IS THE “V” IN THE VICTIM LOCATION MARKING SYSTEM?
2 FT
A large “V”, (for Victim) approximately 2’ in height is painted near the location of a known or potential victim.
L136 IS OPERATING AT A COLLAPSE WHEN THE UNIT COMES ACROSS A LARGE CIRCLED “V” WITH A VERTICAL LINE THROUGH IT. THE OFFICER THAT DAYS TAKES THIS AS A SIGN THAT SECONDARY SEARCHES ARE COMPLETED, DID HE OPERATE CORRECTLY?
NO
++A vertical line is painted through the confirmed victim mark after the victim/s have been removed from the specific location identified by the marking. This marking should not be taken to mean the secondary search is complete, rather it means that all victims that have previously been located have been removed.++
A VERTICAL LINE THROUGH THE “V” OF THE VICTIM LOCATION MARKING SYSTEM WOULD MEAN?
CONFIRMED VICTIM HAS BEEN REMOVED
++A vertical line is painted through the confirmed victim mark after the victim/s have been removed from the specific location identified by the marking. This marking should not be taken to mean the secondary search is complete, rather it means that all victims that have previously been located have been removed.++
UNITS USING THE VICTIM LOCATION MARKING SYSTEM AT A COLLAPSE CONFIRM THAT A DECEASED VICTIM IS LOCATED IN A VOID, HOW WOULD THE MARK THE OUTSIDE OF THE VOID IN REGARDS TO THE “V”?
LARGE V INSIDE A CIRCLE WITH A HORIZONTAL LINE THROUGH THE V
++Paint a horizontal line through the middle of the “V” when the victim is confirmed deceased.++
USING THE VICTIM LOCATION MARKING SYSTEM AT THE SCENE OF A COLLAPSE, HOW WOULD UNITS KNOW THAT THERE WAS A CONFIRMED VICTIM IN AN AREA?
LARGE V WITH A CIRCLE AROUND IT
++A circle is painted around the “V” when the location of a potential victim has been confirmed, either visually, vocally or by hearing sounds that would indicate a high probability of a victim.++
