civil defense and disaster relief

The National Guard is ever on the first line in civil defense. Both emergency prevention  and intervention are regular tasks for the Guardsmen, and they are specifically trained for it. Civil Protection Teams, with their specialist units (scuba teams, K-9 units, logistics and support, radio trasmissions, Emergency Response Teams) are ready to deploy for any emergency or critical situation and to assess all relief support and rescue operations to civilians struck by disaster. High-profile units such as STARS (technical support, search and rescue teams) and UCBS (Chemical and Biohazard Countermeasures) are composed by specially trained volunteers prepared to operate on rough terrain and in hazardous contexts. SAR (Search-And-Rescue), emergency response, training projects and security operations are frequently accomplished by Guardsmen, and the National Guard has an extensive experience in humanitarian operations in foreign countries and in crisis/conflict areas:
