Assignment
 +

 +
The planning officer is in charge of seeing the debriefing is

 +
* Difficulties with the search.
 +
* Hazards
 +
* Suggestions.
 +

 +
* The info you provide is very important to setting up the next search area's, POA, POD, and POS.

Check Out
 +
* PC SAR requires physical check-out on paper with time.
 +
