CK-9 Call Out Eastern Shore MD 5-6 Mar 2011

CK-9 was called out by DNR at 1930 for an Alzheimer's walk away missing for 6 hours. We responded with 7 STMs and 2 dogs (one not arriving in time),  We searched all night and into the morning before he was found alive. Fantastic job to all (especially Starbuck for fighting through all the briars only to turn around and find the humans could not make it through)! The terrain was flat, but very difficult to travel with all the briars, many areas totally impenetrable. Wu-Huuuu.
