Very impressive. They (CC) train a lot of course and appreciate the chance to work out and show their stuff. We've had the rescue team come out to Washoe a couple of times when it was obvious the "emergency" was minor then they turn it into a full blown training exercise.

Hats off to great and effective folks.

Mr. Danger...you could have had a ride in that helicopter!! I can't believe you chose to go to the hospital in my crappy Subaru instead of that sweet ride....
