The ladder is easy to climb with rungs that are reinforced with plastic and steps that are staggered instead of straight across. The lightweight synthetic material makes the 3.8-pound ladder easy to transport to the rescue area. The ladder is available in 8-foot sections. Rescue hook

Offering options in a multitude of emergency response situations, the Benchmade 30200 Houdini-Pro Rescue Hook Tool available from U.S. Cavalry combines three tools in one package: a high-carbon stainless-steel blade, glass breaker and LED light.

Just place the tool against glass and press down, the tool automatically cocks and discharges the glass punch in one quick motion. Tactical Rescue Sling
