OUT NEXT MONTH<br />
APOLOGIES to US and Canadian subscribers who<br />
received issue 58 much later than the rest of the<br />
world. This was due to a change in distribution<br />
procedure that took longer than expected to sort.<br />

MAG-INFO<br />
Above Right: One of the covers under consideration<br />
Above Left: members of Hampshire Constabulary’s Force<br />
Support Unit discover how much suction is imparted by deep<br />
mud! Their remit covers SAR, body recovery, suicides, protesters<br />
and USAR especially in connection with terrorism and<br />
they regularly work with just about all sections of the emergency<br />
services.<br />
Left: This was a difficult article to name - it started out as Flat<br />
Bottom Boats (as shown here) but before you see it in a<br />
paper version is likely to have morphed into either Shallow<br />
Draft Boats or even Flat & Progressive Hull Craft!<br />
Right: Jon Curley of Dorset Fire & <strong>Rescue</strong> with assistance<br />
from Jon Jorg of Moditech and Michigan Firefighter Michael<br />
‘Smitty’ Smith go over the complications to extrication<br />
efforts afforded by modern vehicle materials.<br />
Left: We haven’t had a Back to Back test in ages and get two<br />
in one issue. This first one is Michiel Woltering’s extensive<br />
review of Dog ‘Lift’ Harnesses. ie. those which enable a dog<br />
to be airlifted or abseiled. We ended up with several good<br />
designs from around the world.<br />
Right: If that man looks a bit familiar it’s because it’s Rich<br />
Hackwell again after he’s been diagramaticised by Steve<br />
Monk in his excellent instructional pictures for our series on<br />
the new rope rescue system implemented by Her Majesty’s<br />
Coastguard in the UK.<br />
Left: South African <strong>Rescue</strong>-Paramedic Steve Daly looks at<br />
Paediatric incidents which among other things includes a<br />
bizarre snake bite emergency caused by a local ‘witchDoctor’<br />
or self-appointed ‘Shamen’.<br />
Right: Meanwhile.....if you missed the last issue, you didn’t<br />
get to read about the Urban Climbing techniques of the<br />
Dutch Police (well...not all of their techniques because that<br />
would give the game away, but enough to give you some<br />
ideas), Market Guide to PWC or RWC <strong>Rescue</strong> Water Craft<br />
which is the preferred term, London Fire Brigade continueing<br />
to deal with Heavy Vehicle <strong>Rescue</strong> (as they are again in issue<br />
59), DMM, Petzl & Rock Exotica Gear Reviews etc.etc.<br />
