I'd like to point out that not every person is a hero. I'm willing to bet
some "bounce" because they panic.  A life and death situation will make
everyone react defferently.  AND don't plan on any mental course of action.
Constant drill, I think is the answer e.g. walking away.  You must
drill your procedures again and again for the different situations. This 
will allow a "brain free" action on your part.
When I had mine, I didn't even think about it, I just went into the drill
I was forced to do over and over at Airborne school.

am I babbling again?
