ZAZZU

Cold water acclimation exercises are an important part of water operations for Mountain Division and K9 TZ operators. That's why Teame members take time to get out and about in glacier-cold water and practice staying out of the water.

Sudden immersion in cold water can cause physiological reactions that can overcome mental focus and substantially increase the risk of drowning. Working with K9 units in near-freezing conditions means planning and taking deliberative action.


The time to practice is when it's not an emergency.
The best time to practice is when you can relax and enjoy a calm paddle between the floating ice, high in an alpine forest. Go Teame!

DEPARTMENTS
All activities conducted by Teame Zazzu are operated under officially designated TZ Departments, each of which performs authorized coordinated action in conjunction with interdepartmental support units as determined by mission profiles, research orders, committee requests, maintenance requirements, unit traditions, and in accordance with lawful orders issued by properly designated legal authorities, training interfaces and partner agencies
Features


TZK9 MULTIDOG MUSH: TZK9 pack members ride out together during mounted patrol training.
Keywords: - K9 - - -
Increasing levels of cooperative training steadily improve each pack members performance over time.


SAILS AWAY: Teame members conduct cruising coastal ocean sailing and inshore sailing on small and medium sailing craft.
Keywords: - Aquanautics - - - - Swimming - - Sailing -
Nomenclature and concepts are first studied by reading and discussion in a class setting. Basic sailing skills are practiced in a small personal sailboat. As skills improve, the size of vessel may increase. Aquanautics skills and rescue swimming experience is a prerequisite for TZ sailors.


OUTRIDERS: TZMP personnel operate from motorcycles as lead or screen convoy elements, light ground deployment elements for extended-distance reconnaissance, aerial drone retrieval, message delivery, or route clearance tasks.
Keywords: - Readiness - - Gear - - DIY - - Motorcycles -
Motorcycles present a low profile, high fuel economy, acceleration profile, and maneuverability, as well as possess the ability to access off-road and navigate high congestion areas. This an make motorcycles a good tool for mounted patrol missions despite a higher risk of fatality per mile travelled than other vehicles. Additional training and situational awareness is key to proper motorcycle operation.


BEACH RETREAT: TZ members got some sun and floated some drone.
Keywords: - Fashion - - -
TZMP got out on the water with some OG members to sip, sun and slide. But no sleep was to be had.


TZMP ASYMMETRICAL DRONE OPERATIONS: TZMP operators utilize reflective transmissions to piggyback drone signals for consolidated control of multiple air and land drones.
Keywords: - Drones - - - - Rov5 - - Rovers - - Signals -
By tasking the Kazi aerial drone via electro-optical object recognition to the ground ROV5 the drone pilot was able to utilize the rover's PWM radio signal operating at 2.4 GHZ to control both drone assets simultaneously.
