Lessons Learned
| • | The two survivors from the upper site left their shelters after a few minutes because they felt they would not survive there. They were the only survivors from the upper site. |
| • | Moving after deployment may have been their only chance for survival, but they were very fortunate to have survived. |
| • | Getting out of your shelter during a deployment cannot be recommended. When you open your shelter you expose your airway to hot gases—a potentially fatal move. |
