Ics 214 Section Chief: Fill & Download for Free

Many of the other answers provide an accurate history of most of the MI divisions, however I find it pertinent to mention (though recognizing this is an old thread) that MI10 does not appear to have been merged into GCHQ nor MI16 into MI6/SIS. Below is a detailed literature review of the current state of MI10 and MI16. I will also note I have tracked the various other divisions to their end or continuation, with the former bolded items denoting the original MI divisions and latter bolded items denoting present-day institutions.On MI divisions other than MI10 and MI16MI1 (Secretariat, 1919–1943) comprised MI1b (interception and cryptanalysis) and MI1c (foreign intelligence, the Foreign Section of the Secret Service Bureau). As noted by others, MI1b in 1919 merged with “Room 40”, or NID25, its Navy counterpart, to form the Government Code & Cipher School (GC&CS). It was renamed in 1946 to General Communications Headquarters (GCHQ). MI1c remained until 1920, when it became MI6 (foreign and economic intelligence) and then in 1946 renamed Secret Intelligence Service (SIS in the Foreign Office, formally the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office or FCDO).MI1 had other subsections:I was unable to determine what became of MI1a (distribution of reports, intelligence records) and MI1f (personnel finance). It is possible these were carried over to MI17 (Secretariat, post-1943) which was later disbanded, though I cannot find any source as to when it ceased operating.MI1d (communications security) was absorbed by MI1b, thus becoming part of GCHQ.MI1e (wireless interception) ceased operations some time after WWI, but the RAF established an intercept site in 1927 at Waddington, later moving to Cheadle, and by 1940, RAF Fighter Command effectively carried out the same function as MI1e. RAF Fighter Command was disbanded and re-established a few times before becoming RAF Strike Command in 1968, which merged with the Personnel and Training Command into RAF Air Command in 2007.MI1g (security, deception and counter-intelligence) ran the Radio Security Service (RSS), also known as MI8c, from 1939–1941. MI8c was absorbed by MI6 in 1941, but RSS HQ was absorbed by GCHQ at the end of WWII.MI2 (geographical information on the Middle and Far East, Central and South America, USSR/Soviet Union, and Scandinavia) merged into MI3 (geographical information on European countries) in 1941. MI8 (cable censorship) merged into MI6 in 1941, and MI3 merged altogether into MI6 in 1945–6.MI4 (topography, geography, and maps) became a component of the War Ministry after its initial establishment and persists today as the Defence Intelligence Fusion Centre (DIFC). Its detailed history is summarized well over at Wikipedia. Of all of these, MI4 has the most extensive history of transformation since its inception.MI5 (counter-espionage, the Home Section of the Secret Service Bureau) still exists, better known as the Security Service (in the Home Office).MI7 (press censorship and propaganda) and MI12 (military censorship) became the Ministry of Information (MOI), a convenience office that existed momentarily during and after both WWI and WWII. MOI was formally disbanded in 1946, with its residual components becoming the Central Office of Information (COI). As a result of decreasing funding priority throughout the 2000s, the COI was closed and its function absorbed by the Cabinet Office in 2011.MI9 (postal censorship) and MI11 (military security) ceased operating in 1945, though a portion of MI9 merged into MI19 (enemy PoW interrogation) in 1941. MI19 disbanded some time after WWII.MI14 (aerial photography, Germany) ceased operating in 1943, with its foreign intelligence operations superseded by MI6/SIS.MI15 (aerial photography, other) merged into the Air Ministry, founding, in part, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) in 1964. Aircraft procurement components of the Air Ministry became the purview of the Procurement Executive, later merged into the Defence Procurement Agency, now Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S) (all under MoD). Various components of MI15 returned to the control of RAF, and MI4/DIFC handles air defence intelligence.MI13 and MI18, to the best of available knowledge, were and continue to be unused designations. They are often used in spy-fi to reference clandestine divisions as-yet unrevealed to the public. (Note that the existence of MI6/SIS was not publicly confirmed knowledge until 1994.)There were various other unnumbered MI divisions responsible for information, foreign communications and attaches. I could not find further information on most of these, except for one:MIR (Non-Conventional Warfare, MI Research) performed “research” in such areas as the Far East, India, and North Africa and the Middle East, including Ethiopia. [9, 10] It formed the Special Operations Executive (SOE) in 1940, which was later absorbed into MI6/SIS.On MI10 and MI16According to my research, MI10 (Foreign Military Attaches, 1917–1922; Weapons and Technical Intelligence, approx. 1940) [9] and MI16 (Scientific Intelligence, also known as the Army Scientific Intelligence Section, 1945) coordinated with the corresponding components of Navy and RAF scientific intelligence sections as the Joint Scientific/Technical Intelligence Committee(s) (JS/TIC) in 1945–6, with MI16 located entirely at Bryanston Square and one of three components of MI10 (Guided Weapons and Chemical Warfare) co-located alongside MI16. [1] After much discussion between 1946–9 about the challenges of this structure, in 1950 the JS/TIC was combined into the Directorate of Scientific Intelligence (DSI). [Ibid.]Recognizing the need and natural progression for a centralized department for military affairs, in 1954, the Joint Intelligence Bureau (JIB) absorbed DSI (becoming the Division of Scientific Intelligence) [4], and in 1964, the JIB became the Defence Intelligence Staff (DIS) of the newly established Ministry of Defence (MoD). [2, 3] The remnants of the DSI as well as the Division of Atomic Energy Intelligence (DAEI), established under the JIB in 1957, became the Directorate of Scientific and Technical Intelligence (DSTI) under the DIS. [Ibid.]In the mid-1990s, DIS was renamed yet again to Defence Intelligence Assessments Staff (DIAS), and amalgamated with the Joint Force Intelligence Group (JFIG) and now the Defence Intelligence Security Centre (DISC), among others, into Defence Intelligence (DI, under MoD). [6, 7, 8] DIAS, often still called DIS, is referred to now primarily by its leadership, the Deputy Chief of Defence Intelligence (DCDI) and specifically the Assistant Chief of Defence Staff (Intelligence Capabilities) (ACDS(IC)). [8] The members of DIAS still largely come from a scientific background, but today more specifically focus on research and assessments of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and intelligence coordination. [6]DIAS has dwindled in number over the past two decades, now approximately 400 strong, and will likely continue to shrink; single-Service intelligence apparatus have re-emerged as the primary mechanism of C4ISTAR, and it is postulated that the centralized unit of DIAS will soon evaporate entirely to be replaced by more cooperative inter-Service intelligence sharing through analysts trained at DISC.

If you are talking about the United States, most local and State agencies use ICS (Incident Command System) or a structure compliant with it. Use of such a system is required to receive aid from FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Administration) since their entire operation works off of ICS.ICS is a scalable system and is adapted to the nature, duration and scope of an incident, however, the same responsibilities apply for the individuals in charge no matter what.These are the duties of the Medical Unit leader, according to FEMA. Note, though, that not all of these things may need to be done, and some of the tasks shown may be handled by the same person at a smaller incident. For example, at a working structure fire, an EMS shift supervisor might handle many of these tasks and communicate with the assistant fire chief handling Fire Operations.The following checklist should be considered as the minimum requirements for this position. Note that some of the tasks are one-time actions; others are ongoing or repetitive for the duration of the incident.1. Obtain briefing from Service Branch Director or Logistics Section Chief:Obtain information on any injuries that occurred during initial response operations.Name and location of Safety Officer.2. Determine level of emergency medical activities performed prior to activation of Medical Unit:Number and location of aid stations.Number and location of stand-by ambulances, helicopters, and medical personnel to assign to the incident.Potential for special medical problems, i.e., hypothermia, dehydration, heat stroke, exposure to hazardous materials, etc.Medical supplies needed.3. Respond to requests for medical treatment and transportation.4. Request/supervise ambulance support. Order through established Incident chain of command.5. Prepare the Medical Plan (ICS Form 206), including procedures for major medical emergency. This plan should be coordinated with the medical organization within the Operations Section. Plan should include:Medical Assembly Area.Triage Area.Ambulance Traffic Route.Landing Zone for Life flight (incident and hospital).Aid Station Location(s).Hazard specific information (HAZMAT treatment, etc.).Closest hospitals.Consideration should be given to separate treatment areas for responders and victims, as well as sending all responders to a single hospital.6. Obtain Safety Officer approval for Medical Plan.7. Coordinate Medical Plan with local hospitals.8. Respond to requests for medical aid.9. Notify Safety Officer and Logistics Section Chief of all accidents and injuries.10. Respond to requests for medical supplies.11. Prepare medical reports; provide copies to Documentation Unit.12. Submit reports as directed; provide copies to Documentation Unit Leader.13. Provide briefing to relief on current activities and unusual circumstances.14. Document all activity on Unit Log (ICS Form 214).ICS Resource CenterThis is a simplified chart that I made showing the top hierarchy at an incident, as viewed through ICS. It can of course be a much larger tree and the subordinate branches go down much further.
