    Read the chapter 5 case study (p. 62) and resolution (p. 77) and provide an alternate reply other than the one provided in the textbook. Act as if you were in Valeries position. Use two concepts from chapter 5 to justify your reply. Your post should be a minimum of 2 paragraphs long and each paragraph should have a minimum of 4 sentences. However there can be more sentences and paragraphs if you desire.
    CASE STUDY
    Anton and Valerie were discussing their recent 3-day field deployment to assist with the containment of a chemical spill. What did you think of our time in the field? asked Anton.Not much Valerie replied. She continued The first incident commander did not know her job. She did not know how to delegate work which slowed down operations. The only break we got was being dismissed without having to complete an after-action report. How about you what did you think?If you were part of the conversation how would you reply to Valerie?
    CASE STUDY RESOLUTION
    Returning to the conversation between Anton and Valerie Anton offered the following assessment.I agree that the first incident commander lacked training. Delegation is an important skill. Not collecting after-action reports was a serious mistake. Her error will preclude an overall analysis of the response. It also has the potential to cause problems if chemical exposures of respondents are reviewed. I wonder if she ever identified the chemical that was spilled. After a few moments of silence Anton and Valerie turned to begin their work. Coworkers reported that both were observed wiping their hands on their pants apparently trying to remove an invisible substance.
