IDLH Tactical Worksheet® Notepad
IDLH Tactical Worksheet® Notepad — 50-Sheet Command Pad for Drills and After-Action Documentation
The IDLH Tactical Worksheet® Notepad delivers the same trusted incident command structure found in the full-size Command Board — now in a convenient 11×17" tear-off format. Fifty fresh sheets per pad, ready for everyday command operations, training drills, on-scene documentation, and the after-action review that comes next.
One Sheet Per Incident. One Pad for the Year.
Unlike a dry-erase command board that's wiped after every call, the Notepad gives you a permanent record. Each tear-off sheet captures the command structure of a single incident — fresh start, full layout, kept for documentation. Use it on real incidents for after-action review. Use it in training so every student takes home a copy of their work. Use it as the everyday tactical worksheet that travels with you and stays as a record of what was done.

FAQ
How many sheets are in a pad?
50 tear-off sheets per pad. Enough for a full year of regular drill use or a season of real-incident documentation for most company officers.
What's the difference between the Notepad and the Practice Command Board?
Both share the same 11×17" IDLH layout. The Practice Command Board is reusable cardstock — wipe and reset for unlimited drills. The Notepad has 50 disposable sheets — each one becomes a permanent record you can keep for after-action review, incident documentation, or student evaluation.
Can I keep the sheets for after-action reviews?
Yes — that's one of the Notepad's primary use cases. Real-incident sheets can be filed with incident reports, used as the basis for AAR sessions, or kept as part of the lessons-learned record. In training, each student takes home a copy of their work.
Does the Notepad include the checklists?
No. The Notepad is just the IDLH tactical worksheet layout — the command surface. For the eight all-hazard checklists (Structure, Mayday, Brush, HazMat, ARFF, Tech Rescue, Dive, MCI), pair the Notepad with the Checklist Booklet or use the full-size Command Board which has the checklists integrated.
Where is the Notepad manufactured?
Designed and manufactured in the United States by IDLH Technology, LLC. Most orders ship within 2 to 4 business days from Denver, Colorado.
