Drone
Unit
The Drone Unit began in April 2018 when our first member received their Part 107 License. Since that time, we've added 7 more pilots, 6 drones, numerous drone cameras (including the Zenmuse XT, 640x512 Resolution), and have our FAA waiver to fly at night.

Inland Water
Unit
The inland water initiative began in August 2016 and since that time, we've implemented gradual improvements to our inland water program. The intent of this unit is to either compliment a cadaver dog and handler or running solo recovery missions when requested. To meet our inland water team, click below:
Support
Unit/Comms
Our Support Unit/Comms has been with us since the beginning because frankly, you can't operate without a great support staff and communication capabilities. Since its inception, we have increased our proficiency by taking numerous MLSO classes through SCSLLC while also taking IC 300, 400 and NC's All Hazards IMT class
Resource
Unit
Our resource unit helps ensure all requesting agencies get the resources they need from us and that we have the resources we need to be successful. Since our inception in 2007, we have slowly compiled a resource rich team. To learn more on what we can provide any requesting agency, just click below:
