How to run it

  1. 1Pick tonight's drills with the training officer before the crew arrives, and assign a safety officer for every evolution.
  2. 2Put each station on a timed agenda item in your drill-night meeting so the countdown keeps the rotation moving.
  3. 3Record times and results at each station on paper or in the meeting notes, against your department's standards.
  4. 4Finish with the after-action review on phones. Answers are anonymous unless you ask for names, so people say what really happened.
