Sixteen students of the Canadian Forces School of Search and Rescue graduated Thursday at 19 Wing Comox.

The candidates are trained to penetrate and operate in remote, inaccessible areas of Canada for the purpose of rendering immediate and life-sustaining medical care to casualties.

This was the 51st graduating class; each year applications from all trades in the Canadian Forces are forwarded to Ottawa for occupational transfer to the SAR Tech trade.
