This is the FDNY EMS board on AOL and only members of AOL can view it with that
link. He states in part
"Maybe I'm predjudice in a way; I don't believe there is anyone that could
have done it better than all of us. Which is why I have great difficulty
in dealing with "experts" who dare write a report about "How they should have
done it better". It's a funny thing about living in a glass house, It's
a nice place to live until you start hurling rocks at the other guy.
And of course, the real BS has started: So
and So is filing a Lawsuit because her husband, who she was divorcing before
9/11 wasn't rescued fast enough and died on the 100th floor. This is the
real reason for these reports: To assign BLAME so people can file suit
against someone. You'll notice no suits were filed against the City until
the reports started coming. Amazing isn't it? "I was gonna divorce that
wife beating son-of-a-@&$!* before this happened." "But now that he's gone
I love him so much." "2 million should help me grieve." Only in America."

Now that I know the Community Leader works on the job I do feel a little
better. To me, the greatest statement about 9/11 came from Chief McCracken
when he was interviewed about 9/11. "The thing that impressed me the most
was watching the EMT's and Paramedics working without supervision for hours in
some cases, just going about their business like this was just another job."
That being said I will quote Sir
Winston Churchill; "This was their finest hour." We did our jobs that
day. We did it under incredible odds. We worked under incredible
stress. I personally will only speak positive about that day. I
can only begin to imagine what the Operational Commanders of all Agencies
concerned had going through their minds that day. Training? Rules of
Engagement? It all went out the window. The dynamics of that day
made that a reallity. No MCI management course I have taken outside this
job could ever have envisioned the scale of that event. There are times
when the ability of a human being to deal with stress such as we had on that
day are taken to the endth degree. In the end, we won that day.
What needs to be understood is that those animals tried to destroy our culture,
our Freedom, our way of life. To that end they were
defeated. Maybe I'm predjudice in a way; I don't believe there is
anyone that could have done it better than all of us. Which is why I have
great difficulty in dealing with "experts" who dare write a report about "How
they should have done it better". It's a funny thing about living in a
glass house, It's a nice place to live until you start hurling rocks at the
other guy.

until the next one........stay safe...Ed K.
