The video speaks for itself. Another team from Fairfax leaves today. It is the first time that both rescue teams have been deployed to the same disaster at the same time.
Second group who is leaving tonight:

Lafayette, is this your friend’s unit? Beautiful dog!
I saw on Channel 5 this morning that the FX team saved a UN security guard. They had a clip of him when he was coming out of the rubble.

No, Moon. My friend is at the end of the clip above preparing her gear. She’s part of the second team.I did see them interview her earlier with her service dog by her side. I’ve always been amazed at her ability and willingness to serve in such a manner.
Thanks Lafayette. I posted your link up there as the second waves that leaves tonight. They are a very impressive group. What is the name of the man who was the chief when 9-11 happened?
I was listening to CSPAN and they were talking about the training of these rescue dogs to find people alive, it amazing. They will step on nails, glass, splinters, whatever, no matter how painful to themselves, they continue on in spaces so small they can barely move. I have not been able to watch the news, I donated to the red cross.
This is not the first time this Fairfax Country group has distinguished itself. This group is rightfully a real source of pride for Fairfax County, and God bless these folks and their work.
Sometimes, despite all the controversy and differences which may divide us, there are moments when we can stand proud and united as one people. Seeing that rescue team in action once again is most definitely such a moment.
