Training for ERD 1 Diver, or emergency intervention diving rescuers, was held in Milni on the island of Brač. The course was organised by the Diving Rescue Department of the Croatian Technical Rescue Service (HGSS).
Five rescuers from four stations successfully completed the training. This meant that five new ERD 1 divers joined the ranks of the HGSS.
The HGSS assessed the completion of the training as significant. "This is a significant reinforcement," they stated.
The ERD 1 Diver training is conducted to ensure rescuers are capable of operating in underwater emergency situations. It was held in Milni on Brač, with the organisation undertaken by the Diving Rescue Department of the HGSS.
