Buildings makeshift bridge kits in crisis situations
DUDEK, Jan
Currently it has become recognized that to successfully manage the crisis situation it is necessary to ensure the basic transport, particularly transport infrastructure impassable. One of the many problem areas while ensuring operation in transport is critical to ensure the functionality of artificial structures, and thus become very important just bridges that we in most cases considered by the throat on the roads. Bridges must be kept sufficiently passable,and failing this, just need to take action in the form of construction of a temporary replacement bridge. The general aim of my thesis was to analyze the usefulness of temporary bridge construction kits in crisis situations. The theoretical part describes issues related legislation with crisis management, basic concepts related to crisis management, bridge set MS, heavy bridge set TMS and the use of the Czech Army in crisis situations. Crisis management was essential after the floods in 1997 and 2002 given special attention. It was gradually ascertained that five years after the floods in Moravia in 1997, the Army increasingly lack a global perspective on the overall topic of crisis management. The focus is on bridge set MS. This is a releasable steel bridge construction, which was initially designed for the military sector to the possibility of fast implementation of temporary bypass obstacles. Another topic of interest is becoming difficult bridge kit. Heavy bridge system is normalized steel folding bridge for only one lane of the lower deck, which is designed to build bridges with one or more fields of bridges and overpasses for the construction of the railway. The use of the Czech Army is further defined as a task of the integrated rescue system in the area of internal security, where the individual components of the Integrated Rescue System and other bodies involved in internal security and civil protection must be able to respond professionally and in cooperation with other stakeholders to intervene effectively in an emergency or crisis caused by terrorist attacks, natural and environmental disasters, industrial accidents, and other dangers that threaten the lives, health, property, the environment, internal security and public order in the Czech Republic. The Czech army is used for temporary organized deployment of military units and military installations with the necessary military equipment and under the control of the appropriate commander. Military assistance becomes necessary when the designated administrative authorities, local authorities or a fire protection can no longer ensure the rescue work on their own. The use of the army for rescue operations can be done at the request of regional governors, mayors and mayors of municipalities or the Ministry of the Interior through the Operational and Information Centre Fire and Rescue through the permanent operations center of the Army of the Czech Republic. In the practical part I am focused on gathering the available general and internal information,reports and documentation on the use of temporary bridge kits in crisis situations and analysis of documents,regulations and methodologies relating to the construction of temporary bridge kits in crisis situations. Practical application of new trends and technologies, based on experience with engineer bridge company Czech Army. Processing and evaluation of the results was done in MS Word and MS Excel.

Possibilities of Providing First Aid by Trained Members of the Army of the Czech Republic in Foreign Missions
HLOBILOVÁ, Petra
This Bachelor thesis deals with possibilities that trained members of the Army of the Czech Republic have when giving first aid on their foreign missions. It deals with the soldiers who have passed through a special Combat Lifesaver Course (later just CLS), the activity of doctors and middle medical staff in medical centres is not involved. The work is divided in two parts ? theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part I summarized the specifics of giving first aid in field conditions and the basic principles that military medical staff follow. There are into detail described actions that a Combat Lifesaver performs in case a fellow fighter is injured, to ensure their vital signs immediately after the injury and to transport them to a higher level medical facility. The aim of this work is to provide an idea of giving first aid in the tactical environment of experts and to point out numerous peculiarities which differentiate it from the first aid we know from the civil life. That´s because combat conditions bring lots of restrictions and risks for the injured as well as for the medical staff providing urgent care. The method selected for the qualitative research in the practical part is semi directive interview. The interviews were held with four members of the Army of the Czech Republic, who have attended the above mentioned course and have taken part in a foreign mission with that specialization, and with two instructors of the CLS course. The questions were about the way of selecting soldiers for the CLS course, their training and preparation before their departure to a foreign mission. There were also analysed the competences and obligations of a Combat Lifesaver in case of injury of a fellow fighter. The research has demonstrated that soldiers are selected for the Combat Lifesaver course mainly according to the requirements for the foreign missions. The aim of the selection is the presence of at least one soldier with medical training in each crew. The only requirement on the soldiers that must be fulfilled before departing to a foreign mission is completion of the cited course. Other activities, like training other members of the crew and rounding off their knowledge are up to their consideration. It´s been proved that a Combat Lifesaver fulfils their tasks at a foreign mission in the same way as any other soldier and their specialization is applied only in case of injury of a fellow fighter. They most often deal with gunshot and fragment wounds.

Knowledge of general first aid for soldiers - members of the Engineer Battalion
DUDEK, Jan
Non-professional first aid knowledge is important not only for the person that is forced to provide it, but also, and to even larger extent for the affected person the first aid is provided to. The Army of the Czech Republic is a unit belonging to the Integrated Rescue System. The other units of the Integrated Rescue System provide planned assistance in rescue and liquidation works upon request. Professional soldiers ? members of the combat engineering forces are specialized in performance of special ground tasks by means of special combat-engineering technologies. In peacetime they perform tasks related to civil protection and help in the instances of natural disasters or in emergency situations of similar character. That means that within performance of their jobs professional soldiers ? members of combat engineering troops may meet a person that needs first aid. The aim of the bachelor thesis was to map the level of knowledge of non-professional first aid among professional soldiers ? combat engineers. A hypothesis assumes that professional soldiers ? members of combat engineering troops have sufficient knowledge of non-professional first aid. The bachelor thesis is based on the methodology of information collection from various sources and data collection performed in quantitative form, by the method of anonymous questioning employing open, semi-open and closed questions. The bachelor thesis might be used as study material in the issues in question, as a summary of new findings about the knowledge of non-professional first aid among professional soldiers ? members of combat engineering troops.
