North Platte Post
North Platte, Neb. - The Nebraska State Patrol received a new Mobile Command Post on Sunday and is ready to serve the North Platte area but also the surrounding region. This vehicle will be stationed at the NSP Troop D Headquarters in North Platte.
"In the event of any type of emergency, we can bring this vehicle to the site and basically set it up as a mobile building and once it's on station, we can configure it for a variety of different uses," said NSP Colonel John Bolduc. "This vehicle could be used for rescue and recovery, for first responders who are on station for long periods of time, it can be used as a mobile office, it could be used as a gather point for information and could be used as a media station."
The vehicle is equipped like an office. NSP officials say the Command Post has equipment installed but are working on adding more equipment. Tables, power outlets, built in Wi-Fi network system, computers are already in the vehicle and ready to be used as like it's a mobile office.
