Learn What Police and Fire SCUBA Teams do and how!,
By David Rosenthal "Author of SCUBA DIVING the W... (Forest Hills, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Public Safety Diving (Paperback)
I am not a 'Public Safety Diver'. I leave that for the Police and Fire Department. But I did find this book facinating. It explains how Police SCUBA teams look for drowning victims, guns thrown in the water, how to predict where the currents will take something and a lot of good basic safety tips. Very interesting stuff!
