In ICS, most veterinarians work in which functional area?

Explanation:
In the Incident Command System, the Operations Section is responsible for carrying out the tactical response on the ground and executing the incident action plan. Veterinarians bring hands-on expertise in animal health, triage, treatment, vaccination, sheltering, and disease containment—work that occurs directly in the field during an incident. That direct, on-scene, operational effort is why veterinarians are most often placed in the Operations Section. They may contribute to Planning or Logistics by providing technical input or coordinating supplies, but their primary role is the hands-on response work that Operations oversees.
