I never got a chance to meet the air ambulance crew that saved my son’s life when he was airlifted to a hospital in Montana, but I think about them often. I was told he coded in the air and they brought him back to life. These people operate on a different level of courage and heroism that is usually reserved for comic books and movies. I owe EVERYTHING to them and his team of ICU doctors and nurses at Benefis in Great Falls.
Thanks for that post, JP. Hope your son recovered fully…
Thank you, he is doing great. We all have a new appreciation for life and especially for these first responder heroes.
Decades ago I met the Navy helicopter team who picked a climber off the nearly vertical face of The Minarets near sunset. Pilot said it was almost impossible to get close enough to the rocks. Almost. The guy would not have survived a second night in only a windbreaker. He was beyond grateful.
For such ungainly looking aircraft they can do amazing things in the right hands.
