As a rule of thumb remember this and apply it for the rest of your career. The general public will fail to recognize accomplishments, and the saves made, but will be the first one to point a finger of blame or negligence. Always remain professional, and keep your crew on the same level. Train all you can, and keep doing what you do. Nobody can take the personal knowledge of all you have done away from you, and the self satisfaction and dedication to helping others will continue to make your rescue efforts worth doing. Keep up the great work, and stay safe
