[COLOR:BLUE]Guys, again, I did not intend for my post to turn into anything other than what I was feeling at the time. Was it a great idea at the time? Probably not, that is why I chose to stop any further discussion on my post by asking the TD to close the topic, which they did. I am an EMT and have worked in many different capacities over the years. If some of U are old enough, if I were to mention some scenes and accidents that I have worked, I have no doubt that many of you would know me. DitchDoc 08 and I have talked and straightened out our differences. I hope that this will soon end. Please let's just drop this whole matter. I was quite aware that AE was again called today to Station 5, but I was in no way gonna mention or even bring it up. I do now understand the protocol as to why AE is called Vs. ground transport. I do not carry a Fire radio in my pocket but I am privy to a lot of information, and I will not give that information in this type setting. Thanks Balch for all the wonderful information and hopefully those that don't or didn't understand fully what goes into AE being called vs Ground transport, and the time and effort and sweat and manpower, not counting the simple love of what the EMS people are doing, will now understand. I, for one, truly appreciate all the EMS does in more ways than U will ever know. Thanks again Balch for your great comments.
