Vancouver Island’s MUSAR team ready for anything

Reading Time: < 1 minute

In a nondescript building at CFB Esquimalt, the rhythmic sound of concrete saws and the clang of metal tools echo through the air.

Men and women in yellow helmets carefully maneuver a massive concrete slab using wooden rollers, while nearby, others breach a wall with specialized cutting equipment. Across the room, team members practice intricate patient extraction techniques.

This is not a scene from a disaster movie, but a typical training day for Vancouver Island’s elite Medium Urban Search and Rescue (MUSAR) team.
