 This special episode of "5-Alarm Task Force," is truly for all First Responders! This episode was originally supposed to air on Monday, September 11th. My guest However, due to Hurricane Irma, we had to postpone the recording of the show. It was rescheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 3rd. Sadly, the brought us less than 36 hours after the Las Vegas tragedy.
My guest is Broward Sheriff's Office-Division of Fire Asst. Chief for Technical Services, Todd LeDuc. One of Chief LeDuc's main focus is on firefighter heath, wellness and fitness for duty and he services on many local, regional and national committees and panels.
On this episode, we discuss the amazing response by the wide array of first responders in the Las Vegas/Clark County area, as well as the brave and unwavering civilians who, at their own peril, immediately threw themselves on the task of assisting the both the wounded and those suffering other injuries.
We also do look back on the events of 9|11 and talk about where we were and what we were doing when the news started to come in. And from the darkness of that terrible day, we talk about how, not only the fire service, but all branches of first responders have evolved since 9|11 and the development of new and better equipment for these brave men and women who always answer the call.
We would like to hear from you, our listeners, as to how YOU remember this dark day in America's history and what you were doing and perhaps, what you did. Please drop us a line to Dalmatprod@Outlook.com. |
