Fuel tank response

摘要

Take time to fully assess an incident and a site before beginning operations, prioritise tasks according to importance and do not work in cells: all these were some of the learning points that were picked up during Exercise Proactive, which took place on Sunday 17 September. It is a sign of these troubled times that an actual terrorist incident happens in London on the day before the exercise, which is itself simulating a terrorist threat. It results in two fire departments near the UK capital being unable to travel to the Dorset & Wiltshire Training Centre, wMch is located within the confines of a military fuel depot, 120km away in southwest England.
