    Warning Bloody Picture.......

    On my way home from work today I drove past my fire house and noticed our rescue truck pulling out of the barn (ie firehouse). One of our volunteer members stopped me and said the medic crew was short handed. I drove around the corner from the fire house and seen our ambulance, I stopped right in the middle of the road and jumped in the back. Due to privacy reasons that is wear this story ends. A picture is worth a thousand words so I will let it finish the story for me.The PT was flown by helicopter to a trama center. I had my hands full in the back of the ambulance so I didn't get any helicopter photos. 2013 marks my 10th year as a volunteer firefighter and I have been a paramedic for three years now. I love the job just as much today as I did ten years ago.

    Just a friendly tip...... DON"T DRINK AND DRIVE

    Looks like from the windshield someone didn't have a safety belt one. I hope everyone makes it ok.

    No seat belt Greg the driver was hanging out the passenger door head first.

    Thank you Frog, sometimes it doesn't end so well. This time we were lucky it was a single car accident and this jerk didn't hit an innocent motorist.

    Tyson,

    Thanks for sharing. I agree with Frog - thank God for people like you.

    I think when you are in fields of service, firemen, policemenn, EMS, armed forces, etc.....your worth is sometimes underestimated.

    You save lives!. It takes dedication, courage, compassion and a lot of other "virtues" to do what you do. You guys/gals are the heroes!

    Thank you for your service.
