Temp 7 to Kroeker

Join us in congratulating Jeremy Kroeker for being selected to receive a temporary upgrade to GS 7.  There were many great candidates and it was a tough decision. Unfortunately there was only 1 current GS 7 vacancy on the org chart.

UTV Training

There can be a UTV class in June if people are interested.

Any jumpers who want a UTV license go to www.ROHVA.org, complete the free ROV e-course (~2hrs) and bring the certificate to Boyd. The practical skill class will follow.

We would like to get 2 jumpers into the UTV instructor course next spring at the NRU, if you’d like to be one of them be sure to have a UTV license by then.

GS 7 Temp Promotion Outreach

Anyone interested in a temporary GS 7 promotion for this coming season e-mail your one page resume to Tory Kendrick at tkendrick@fs.fed.us by May 8th.

New Bandages

We are going to be putting a new type of pressure bandage into the medical kits - The Emergency Bandage (also called the Israeli Bandage). It had a pressure bar and elastic wrap, which works great but takes a little practice to get familiar with.

There are two of them next to ops, check them out when you have a minute.
