Untitled[edit]

I think this refers to the Britsh police command structure. See external link Wiltshire Constabulary command structure. If this can be further clarifgied it should be; I added what I could but my first thought was it referred to some sort of game system. RJFJR 03:10, September 5, 2005 (UTC)

I always thought it was a British term too. Anyone else know if this is used in other countries? -- Necrothesp 11:46, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I've been bold and both re-written this artcle and moved it to a more appropriate location. Sapient 22:52, 5 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Kratos is Controversial[edit]

I find it somewhat controversial that the article describes Operation Kratos as a "successful" example of the deployment of this command structure. Since said operation resulted in zero successes, and more than zero innocent civilians murdered by the police, and that this failure may well have been specifically due to the failure of the command structure, using it as a "successful" example seems to be reaching somewhat.

Merge Gold Command into this article?[edit]

I've just stumbled across Gold Command, which is wholly covered by this article. If no-one objects I'll merge it. Sapient 11:59, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Now merged. Sapient 18:22, 13 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Structure?[edit]

Actually, it is not exclusively a police command structure - it is a common multi-agency command structure for when a major incident is declared in an area, senior/high-ranking officers from any Category 1 responders are usually at a Gold meeting if they are required (such officers include Chief Constable, Chief Executive of a council and senior emergency planners for example). —This unsigned comment was added by 85.12.88.2 (talk • contribs) 09:35, 27 March 2006 (UTC).[reply]

The article doesn't specify it's exclusively a police command structure - you are getting confused between this discussion page and the article page, I think. Have a look at the help pages and the tutorial. Sapient 12:52, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This structure is also used by organisations such as St John Ambulance etc. Their bronze/silver/gold commanders will usually be co-located with the NHS ambulance service equivalent, when the two work together. On big events such as pop festivals, Londom Marathon etc, that are spread over a wide area, then there can be half a dozen bronze commanders, for all the services, and (usually) a single silver commander for each service: fire, ambulance, police, SJA, red cross, etc). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Starfiend (talk • contribs) 00:37, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Buncefield[edit]

I've added Buncefield as an example of how the structure functions at an incident, it also helps to explain the distinction between g,s,b locations and g,s,b roles for emergency service personnel. I know Roy Wilsher for gold for the FRS, but can't remember whehter the chief constable or his deputy was gold for Herts police. Also, I can't remember where silver was located - I think it might have been at Herts FRS HQ in Hertford, I've found one ref to Watford and added this - uncited. Any help appreciated.
