Swift Water Rescue with Captain Charles Boswell

We have veteran LAFD Captain Charles Boswell, former mentor to Danny & current peer counseling group leader for the LAFD wellness & mental health unit. He tells us an incredible swift water rescue story from his 1st year as a captain. A rescue that resulted in Medals of Valor for his crew who put their lives in such a risky situation that even other firefighters and swift water rescue teams couldn't believe that they pulled it off! It's a story that must be heard. He also talks about how the stress of so many dangerous incidents takes it toll, and why he now works to help his fellow firefighters manage it. We talk about the new number one cause of death in the fire service, why so many firefighters get divorced, & why some people struggle with life after retirement. We also talk about the new LAFD wellness resource center, & the impact this program is having on its members. But seriously, Capt Boz tells maybe the craziest rescue story we've ever heard on the show. You'll need to put a harness on.
