The Urban Search and Rescue (I believe that is what they are called) respond to
disasters around the country and world looking for trapped victims and to help
out in the overall rescue effort. I believe what Clayton is saying is having a
dedicated trained heliborne search and rescue unit able to respond quickly to
areas that need them especially where large helicopters are not readily
available like Central America or the Caribbean. With help ($$$$$) from the
govt. and charities (Red Cross etc) this is not a bad idea.
