    Is this how you best use your donations? How many patients do you transfer not just missions. There is a huge difference

  • Fascinating take on how rescues happen and all the moving parts

    What a story. Even though the crew knew her personally it was most important to do their job.

    As one that almost had stars come get me I can truly appreciate what anyone of STARS or emergency responders do with their professionalism and getting the job done.

    Love to hear how it all works with communications etc. so fascinating.

  • I wasn’t worried about cougars. Until now.

    Very interesting story. And sobering insight on what it’s like to encounter a cougar in the wild. And then to hear the victim cooly describe what it’s like to be bitten and pawed by a wild cat. And dragged into the bushes. And how victim’s associates had to battle the animal to help save her life. Fascinating. With a happy ending.
