The (hopefully) final Bollard article is its usual heavy handed self with insinuations that Gerry was a pill popping victim of a poorly orchestrated SERE intervention. Though its somewhat public...

I thought I'd try to simplify poor Gerrys lost person scenario regarding the map/compass and orienteering part since theres been a lot mentioned about it in the past 3 pages. It won't end the...

Well said Scotty/Mags. Gerry has left us several incredibly valuable lessons that I hope help me or someone else someday. In general terms (and who knows maybe Gerry did but she was unlucky),...

RIP Gerry

Howdy Bluebearee believe me I'm kicking myself too. We've corresponded, and you're smart enough to know that I'm smart enough to not be encouraging people to go charging into a restricted search and...

Hopefully not much has changed Don. If I saw you or anyone else that needed mild to major help on the trail I'd do my best to help you. And please help me.....no rhetoric or debates needed! I...

Texaxbob I'm not looking for a pat on the back at all. This has been and is all about Inchworm. Nor am I looking to pry into a persons medical history. I never said that. Its really hypocritical...

Ah perhaps your right rocket. Maybe I've been attached to this thing for too long and on this forum more than need be. However, there is not selfish intention on my part I don't think. I'm one of...

The articles main points I think were actually pretty good. One is that she did keep a journal, something some of us have know for a while but might be news to many. The second is about...

We hear you Traveler and I think we get it. There are various rabbit holes that we need not get into regarding speculation, the different levels of it, how its such an integral part of all of us...

The MWS obligations probably fall under the 'Duty To Act' if you're looking for a legal catch phrase. Usually applied to EMS and one on one care, but theres a broader scope that this falls under in...

Ya Buzzard thats a really important point and can't be stressed enough. This section of the AT is really a super remote area and tough to find anything in there. I'm not sure if I could back this...

Well said t-man. There really hasn't been talk of anything but that especially since she was found. Not sure why some are still in a tizzy about the conspiracy thing when most of us have moved well...

Welcome Dave. Well said, all of it. It is, unfortunately, the perfect storm of lost person scenarios. Rest assured there is still the official file to be released and probably some basic info...

After rereading my post let me clarify. I meant that here are many instances where scent dogs did/do not work, but I made it sound like a 50/50 situation which is probably not the case. Though...

Very well said Tiger. From our point of view there are this is all confusing and hard to make sense of. There is almost certainly personal information available to the investigators, that we don't...

Ya Don I agree the STOP is most often adopted. It would be an interesting discussion here and maybe something we could learn to know more about the W. Doyle seminars and what he actually teaches. I...

Its a good observation Adriana. There are really dozens of medical reasons (someone said appendix) to explain why she might have become incapacitated, but her 'bad back' has been info we've had for...

Ohhh so wireless receiver transmitter? Thanks egilbe/Buzz.

Traveler - Thanks for sharing that post. You know a lot more about SAR that I do that's for sure. May I ask what, if anything, you...

Well said Muddy. In fact there were multiple teams of many people that made sacrifices to go in those woods and try to find Inchworm. I think the simple creed to try to help someone in need...

Ya John B there are often post in here unrelated to Gerry but we just kinda have to go with it. At least his was about the area. We got a couple of guys talking about football. Real respectful.
...

Good stuff there Acacia thats a pretty good break down. In short yes it would have been helpful. It could have saved her life. If the hasty searches were noted on the WS map, unfortunately the...

One thing to note Don, t-man and others is that there are a few tote roads up there. There is a second north and northbound of the one we're talking about that might also go into the navy base. I...

I'm wondering if the good folks of WB would go in search for someone in a similar situation near their localities the next chance they get. Almost nobody posting is from Maine or even close so you...

Well now that the medical examiners report has been out for a number of days there might be a bit of a tidal wave here. Its a pretty thorough report. A lot of questions answered in it.

Ya...
