About Strategic Operations, Inc.
Since 2002, Strategic Operations, Inc. (STOPS) has been providing training services and products for the military, law enforcement, first responders, and other organizations responsible for Homeland Security. STOPS is committed to excellence through state-of-the-art live action training support - employing "Hollywood" style special effects, role players, props of all kinds, 3D targets, the re-locatable habitat unit (RHU), and the conversion of shipping containers to create immersive training environments that are the most unique in the industry.
STOPS calls this type of immersion training - Hyper-Realistic® and defines it as "such a high degree of fidelity in the replication of specific conditions in a training environment that participants so willingly suspend disbelief that they become totally immersed and eventually stress inoculated" - all their senses tell them, emotionally and intellectually, that the scenarios are real. It is the ultimate in Theater Immersion Training.
STOPS continues to introduce innovative solutions to overcome the challenges of limited budgets. We are adept at creating real-life training situations/environments or providing safe, sound, and reliable housing for disaster response.
Cut Suit Role Player (RP)
Part Time - San Diego, CA, U.S.
Summary
This person will wear the Human Worn Partial Task Surgical Simulator (Surgical Cut Suit) or the Tactical Combat Casualty Care Cut Suit (TCCC Cut Suit) during scenarios. The patented Cut Suit® is the most realistic way to simulate the look, feel, and smell effects of severe traumatic events on a live human casualty while allowing first responders and physicians to safely perform real procedures - from the point of injury to treatment en route, and transition of care to surgical intervention.
Unique features of the Cut Suit:
- The system can be worn during intense physical scenarios
- The system weighs approximately 20 pounds
- The system allows human interaction during emergency assessment and treatment
A wide variety of injuries can be simulated with the Cut Suit. The following procedures can be performed:
- Extremity hemorrhage control/tourniquet application and wound void packing
- Cricothyroidotomy
- Bilateral Anterior and Axillary Chest Needle Thoracentesis
- Bilateral Chest-tube Thoracotomy
- Surgical and/or Stapling of the Skin
- Peripheral IV Access

Individuals must be comfortable wearing the Cut Suit and willing to be "handled" and "touched" by Special Effects Make-up Artists (applying wounds), Cut Suit Subject Matter Experts (assist in Cut Suit operations), and members of the Training Audience (TA) (rendering aid). Cut Suit Role Players should be accustomed to working in adverse and austere conditions.
