    All,

    Nine types of messages have been identified as necessary to pass during a telecom infrastructure outage (Red Cross forms in parenthesis):

     Short messages of few words (passed over a voice circuit)
     Moderately to lengthy general messages (Red Cross ICS213 General Message)
     Logistics requests (Red Cross Disaster Requisition 6409)
     Unaccompanied minor reports (Unaccompanied Minor and Separated Child Form)
     Safe and well (legacy as “Health and Welfare”) registration (Safe and Well Registration)
     Emergency welfare inquiry (Emergency Welfare Inquiry)
     Client incident / death (Client Incident Report)
     Staff Request (Staff Request)
     Contact Roster (ARC ICS203)

    The ICS forms adapted for use by the Red Cross include:

     Incident Briefing 201
     Incident Objectives 202
     Contact Roster 203
     Work Assignment 204
     Organization Chart 207
     Safety Message 208
     General Message 213
     Daily Schedule 230
     Incident Open Tracing 233
    However, the information that must be passed during a telecom infrastructure outage include
    that managed by the General Message 213, Work Assignment 204 plus six Red Cross specific
    forms.

    It only takes a minute each to review these template/forms in Winlink and/or NBEMS (Fldigi).

    Thank you.

    V/R (73),
