Our March Program:
Our guest speaker at the March
meeting will be Rick Gage, an EMT in the US Air Force. Rick recently
completed his first tour of duty in Iraq, serving as an Emergency
Medical Technician aboard C-130s. He is home for a short time on
leave, and has turned down other opportunities so he can return to
the military and continue to serve his country and fellow servicemen
and women.
Rick has an interesting DVD showing
what life is like evacuating wounded service personnel and taking
care of them aboard the C-130 aircraft. During some of his missions,
Rick's plane took hits from enemy fire, but was able to return
safely to fly again another day. He is an interesting young man who
will totally impress you with his enthusiasm. His name may sound
familiar to any of you familiar with the Brockport airport. His dad,
also Rick Gage, has an aircraft based there.
This is a program you won't
want to miss.
