The year 2021 continued the trend we have been observing since 2018: After many years of development work, we are able to support authorities and emergency response organisations so effectively that our help is being requested more and more often. Be it as expert advisor during a forest fire mission of the EU module from NRW, be it for reconnaissance and situation presentation during the flood disaster in the Ahr valley or on an international level during the development of a concept for fast and light rescue units - and these are only the highlights of our activities from 2021.
With the examination and certification of our light rescue team in front of a United Nations examination commission, @fire then also finally entered the international level on a par with all other nations. And - all on a voluntary basis, only possible through the commitment of our members and supporters.
