RESCUE STORY and PHOTO CONTEST RULES

Urban H.A.R.T. ONLINE

RESCUE STORY OF THE MONTH AND
RESCUE PHOTO OF THE MONTH

RULES FOR SUBMISSIONS

Urban H.A.R.T. is interested in publishing rescue stories from the rescue community and rescue photographs. To accomplish this goal, we are actively soliciting submissions from every member of the fire / rescue services. The goal is to give credit where it is due and provide an international forum for discussion. Publication of either a rescue story or rescue photo will give instant international recognition to the author.
For Rescue Story submissions, we are interested in rescue stories that explain the incident thoroughly and include the following minimum information: situation upon arrival, decisions made to address situation, actual rescue method /systems employed, resolution of the incident, rescue training of the individuals involved.
For Rescue Photo submissions, we are interested in photos that show the human element of the rescue and if possible, some of the rescue methods/ systems employed.
