That's the thing, though -- a properly thought-out and executed plan would have included notification and activation of drivers.

I hear you.

Evac isn't as easy as Hollywood has made it seem in their disaster movies the last few years.

Very astute observation. I've heard the same thing in Iraq, where our soldiers are sometimes upset that their weapons fail to always provide 1 kill for each bullet. They were brought up on video games, and conditioned otherwise. The reality is that the instant-kill target zone on the human body is actually quite small.
