CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Lois Dominguez of Chenega Security & Support Solutions, who works in Fire Rescue operations, places a neck brace on George Jacobs, NASA deputy director NASA Center Operations, who is serving as a "volunteer patient." The activity taking place in Kennedy's Launch Complex 39 turn-basin parking lot was only one of several drills. It was part of a new training program that was developed by Kennedy's Fire Rescue department along with NASA Aircraft Operations to sharpen the skills needed to help rescue personnel learn how to collaborate with helicopter pilots in taking injured patients to hospitals as quickly as possible.
