When the SWAT team loads up on the door, Skip Heflin of Hall County Fire Services wants to have his guys backing them up. “Our eventual goal is to become (a) full part of the team, such that if we make entry in the stack, we would be in the stack with them,” said Heflin, who is the chief of training over the tactical medical team. Reaching its first anniversary, the tactical medical team of six medics takes the same calls as that of the SWAT team to make sure law enforcement stays safe.
