Training at Studland

Last night found us at Studland Beach preparing and implementing a search plan for a missing person.
Normally, we'd go through a process that takes into account the last known sighting, a persons intentions, their age, physical condition, mental state etc when deciding where to concentrate the search. Last night there was another overriding factor to consider....how far from his car would our sector manager drag a life sized bright orange dummy in an attempt to 'hide' it? Not far, we thought, and so we concentrated the search near to the road and lo and behold, the casualty was soon located and recovered.
