LUNARS is an acronym to help you remember the information you need to transmit on the radio when requesting emergency assistance on the fireground.
- L - Location
- U - Unit
- N - Name (or ID#)
- A - Assignment
- R - Resources Needed
- S - Situation
For instance, if you were trapped you might say the following:
Command from 11-21 with EMERGENCY TRAFFIC
All companies from Command clear the air for EMERGENCY TRAFFIC, all companies from Command clear the air for EMERGENCY TRAFFIC;
Go ahead 11-21
Command from 11-21. MAYDAY - MAYDAY - MAYDAY. This is Firefighter Jones, I am lost during primary search and low on air, I think I am in the Charlie / Bravo corner in the basement with low visibility and high heat. I need air and help getting out.
- L = Charlie/Bravo corner in the basement (see Building side labeling)
- U = 11-21
- N = Firefighter Jones
- A = primary search
- R = air and help getting out
- S = lost, low on air, low visibility, high heat
