I'm saddened, speechless, and heartbroken. It seems like we are dealing with things like this regularly. Makes me feel even better about my decision to carry.

Not a good day, though the whole incident was managed exceptionally well.@Tigger - If you're there, please stay safe. I'm sending prayers and good thoughts everyone's way.
Sadly, a University of Colorado at Colorado Springs PD officer was killed backing up CSPD. Two other civilians were also killed.

I appreciate that. Some haunting stuff that I hadn't even come close to experiencing yet in my career. So I'll have a beer or two and then it's back on the truck tomorrow, we'll see how it is then.We are glad that you are ok. Please know that we are here for you. I'm sorry for everyone's lost today.
But mostly, I'm just proud to be a small part of what is a really good system, both in and out hospital.

I'll have to raise a beer to the Officer who ran into danger when others ran out...
In other, lighter news, looks like I'm planning a last minute road trip to Vegas. Like Sunday or Monday lol

I'm sorry you had to go through that, but proud to "know" you. Like EMT2015 said, we are here for you. You always have people to lean on if you need to. No judgement.
I'll raise a glass to you and to the families and friends of those that were taken today.

Here's a sign that I'll be releasing a patient to the care of BLS 99% of the time...Dispatched to a patient at 0100 who "can't walk" but is found not only walking, but walking up three flights of stairs. To her credit, she also walked back down to the waiting ambulance. By God, we fixed her!
"Dispatch, medic unit available full crew, ambulance transporting BLS only."
No sweeter words have ever been spoken [emoji4]

My unit is quite tonight. I made my EMT partner take our 3 BLS calls. She isn't too happy about having to actually work.

Well it'll be for a day or two to take the National Testing Network FireTEAM test because all the local locations don't have any available test dates before the cutoff for a local dept
