The latter of which saw members of IAEP Local R12-77 entering the hot zone without ballistic vests in the attempt to save students’ lives. IAEP National Director Philip Petit weighed in on the series of events, “When we continue to hear these kinds of stories in the news everyday, I can’t help but be thankful for our members. Because of them, we know there is help on the way. Even when things seem at their worst.”
Thanks to the swift actions of IAEP EMS professionals and local hospitals, many lives were saved at the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, FL. Unfortunately, three United States Airmen, Kaleb Watson, Mohammed Haitham and Cameron Walters, have passed away. Our thoughts are with their families, and also with our EMS family who runs head long into this kind of danger every day.
