March 19, 2003- America's quiet warriors are the legion of ham radio operators, 700,000 of them, who are always at ready for backup duty in emergencies--amateur, unpaid, uncelebrated, civilian radio operators, during and after floods and fires and tornadoes. After the 9/11 attacks, hams were indispensable in reuniting friends and families. Most recently it was they who expedited the search for debris after the disaster to the space shuttle Columbia, and right now, at this moment, they are involved in homeland security to a greater degree than you would want me to make public.

WI ARES/RACES Membership Standards
From the WI ARES/RACES Website
Effective Immediately, the following are membership standards to keep in good standing
Participation in 12 home county ARES/RACES training nets per year.
Participation in one ARES/RACESactivation (either Skywarn or other) per year.
Attend one ARES/RACES meeting per year (might be the annual meeting).
Send one NTS radiogram per year indicating the member is still interested in retaining membership. This does not have to be on the air, it can be through e-mail or Winlink 2000, etc., but it must be in NTS format.
Be a contributor to the team in the eyes of the EC (subjective, but important).
Attend Skywarn training at least once every two years.
Section Emergency Coordinator, effective immediately. Up until this point, Skip was the ASEC for Administration and prior to that the ASEC for Training. He is employed with Wisconsin Emergency Management in Planning and Preparedness.
I am happy to have a man with extensive experience in emergency service and look forward to his leadership in Wisconsin Section ARES/RACES!
WI ARES/RACES Members have certain FEMA training requirements to meet, below is a list of those training requirements.
General ARES/RACES Members must take FEMA Courses ICS-100 "Introduction of the Incident Command System" and IS-700 "NIMS - An Introduction" within 6 months of becoming a members. ARES/RACES Leadership require the above courses in addition to IS-200 "ICS for Single Resources and Initial Action Incidents" and IS-800B "National Incident Management System (NIMS), An Introduction."
Additional FEMA training courses are not currently required, however you are encouraged to explore any other courses that may interest you. When you complete a FEMA training course, please get a copy of the completion certificate to your counties Emergency Coordinator so that the ARES/RACES personel files can be properly updated.
