I agree with you and would add that thousands of first responders create miracles every day. I'm not taking anything at all away from what you're saying about this group, but pointing out the amazing work done is by these individuals day in and day out across the country.
I've been First Aid/CPR/AED certified for 15+ years. Two years ago I actually watched an incident unfold in front of me at a musical. It wasn't that I didn't know what to do, but knowing when to start doing it is complicated. There was a surgeon there, and in hindsight I trusted her to know what to do but she was clearly out of her element. There was a police officer on the scene almost immediately after the 911 call and he absolutely took command. I helped him get the guy onto the floor and the officer started CPR. I offered to take over when he needed a break, fortunately medical help arrived very quickly. Watching that team call out instructions, seeing them digging through kits with packaging flying everywhere; everyone with a job to do. It's an incredibly intense scene. Very well organized chaos. They got him stabilized enough to move him to the stretcher and to the ambulance. I remember the complete vacuum of silence when all of the activity was suddenly gone out the door leaving only room full of shocked bystanders. The only sounds we're the two first responders gathering up the boxes and packaging from all the materials scattered around the aid kits. I know the individual ended up passing away a few days later, but the advanced life saving efforts allowed his family a chance to see him and say goodbye.
These are incredibly hard jobs to do. Now that I've seen it I'm even more grateful for the people that sign up to walk into that situation everyday knowing that they will lose more than they win. Always happy to see these wins celebrated for their sake and sanity.
