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
  • U = 11-21
  • N = Firefighter Jones
  • A = primary search
  • R = air and help getting out
  • S = lost, low on air, low visibility, high heat
