It's a tricky question, because I think the benefit in the German model lies in the standard that they have across the country. As an example, the catastrophic flooding that they had last year, which was the biggest deployment of this organization in its history, saw all 700 stations involved in the deployment.
One benefit is the surge capacity that the system provides, because if everyone is trained the same way, to the same standards and with the same equipment, depending on the module—as we discussed earlier—and what is needed in which region, all these people can then be rotated so that nobody has to leave for a long period of time.
