[LRflex] Re: Coast Guard photos with the Leica Olympus

Thanks Slobodan - working with the Coast Guard crews is an awesome
experience. The level of professionalism they display every day in their
work makes you want to rise to their level, if that's possible.

Ten years ago I worked at a hospital where I could watch the CG helicopters
land every so often. I usually had a few minutes to go outside and watch
them land on the helo pad with grace and precision. Pilots looked like two
knights in blue armor up front, then their squire, the flight mechanic, came
out the door, visor down against the rotor wash. Then this crewman began the
careful dance  of transferring a hurting patient to the waiting ER nurses.
The trained movement and gentle concern showed so heroically against the
background commotion of wind and noise.

The sight always impressed me and since then, I feel so blessed to have
known some fine Coast Guardsmen and to have even flown with them.

Regards,
Gary Todoroff
