6/30 - 7/1 North American rescue 2 day first responder medical - PUEBLO WEST, CO

[Sticks]

I suspect that this is hosted by the same person (local LEO) that has hosted the last two classes (Mike Pannone and Pan MacNamera) at PW.

Think outside the box. Not only good training for ranges and compettitons, but if you work in an industry that you/coworker could suffer severe injury during the course of your duties (puncture, amputation, deceleration trauma, general mauling by equipmet), this is a good skill to have. 90% of the time in my line of work, I am my own first responder.

$400 per person. Sign up at the Grey Group website training section.

No weapons or ammo required, but you can bring them if you want.
