      I'm glad I'm not the only one. I kept thinking...."Why am I so emotional right now?" Eventually it kind of hit me. There's something special about that final radio call when they retire from service. But more than that, I had a good friend who was a firefighter who suddenly died of a brain aneurysm, and during his funeral they did a final radio call for his number, and it was the most emotional part of the funeral for me. (And most others.) I can't think about that part of the funeral without getting emotional. So when they did this final radio call in the video, I believe subconsciously that emotion came back up quickly. I'm just glad this one was under much happier circumstances.

    Reminds me vaguely of my own high school officer. He is the kindest, more compassionate guy you’ll meet. He had his last day on the job, and on the way to the station to retire his gear, an emergency call of an active shooter that was able to steal a police car from a downed officer downtown was called in. He decided to pick up the call, when he did not have to. He assisted chasing down the shooter, and helped take him down. He was shot multiple times, including once in the face. Luckily, he made a full recovery, and was marched through the school being praised by everyone, and the school districts and town made huge donations to him and the families of all injured and killed officers and their families.

But the incident was on March 8th, 2022, in Joplin Missouri. My high school officer is Rick Hirshey, who was injured but made a recovery, and the other two officers on the scene passed away. They had their memorial service at Missouri Southern State University. I believe that is enough information to find all that you are looking for 🙂

    Awesome! Great job! A word of advice, and something I saw EVERY day as a CFI...don't favor a perfect headwind at the loss of available landing areas- ESPECIALLY in a low-inertia rotor system like the R22. You flew over the trees on your approach to the school, an action which I imagine is because we are trained "always perfectly into the wind". If you would've taken a path over the football and softball fields, for example, on approach you would've had perfect, flat areas to land in case of emergency/engine failure. Instead, you chose over the trees (and NOT the fluffy kind) presumably because it was "into the wind". I'll take a slight crosswind any day if it keeps me over good forced landing areas! Just some words of advice from years landing in remote areas as a HEMS Pilot. Fly safe!
