SAR Fundamentals issues
Issues related to mock search from SAR Fundamentals perspectives
- small groups of students, typically 2-4 students

 - Use call signs according to the current SAR Alberta communications standard. Instead of Team Alpha, Team Bravo, it's S1 (Sierra 1), S2 (Sierra 2) for ground searchers.

- scheduled switching, called by overhead team
