Nothing can be so chaotic as a firefighter in trouble that calls a Mayday. \\xa0The fire service spends a lot of time and resources in training firefighters and task level officers in techniques and methods for calling a Mayday and surviving those situations---as it should be! \\xa0However, there has been little developed and created in the way of real, meaningful training for incident commanders to hone their skills in handling a Mayday.
