It sounds like the training public saftey divers in your area receives may be
as minimal as the training they receive in mine. I've got a friend who is on a
Sherriff's Dept. dive team and all of their equipment went to low-bidder. Most
of them are only AOW trained and their in-service training is just a matter of
getting wet.
It's really a shame. These guys are training to handle situations that most of
us never want to encounter and will be expected to enter the water in
environmental conditions that could be hazardous to their health. They sure as
hell deserve a lot better training than they seem to get.

Know about it........from what I can find out......exceeded their training,
and equipment. They were members of a Fire Department rescue team.........
diving in an area that was 150-170. Sounded like using just single 80's

Anyone hear anything about a diver drowning in Lake George over the
Weekend???All I heard was, someone did and they recovered the body. Who they
are, beats me or if it even did happen. Just curious,
Ed
