good story - would have loved to been in on that!

have been thru similar training in and out of military - both being the victim and the rescuer. is a blast - and you do not have to find an excuse to hit the water clothed and booted you are being told to.

it does come in handy - once was standing on a boat dock and saw a guy fall off his jetski (was not wearing a helmet) and his bud on the other jetski could not stop in time and ran over him. I was half planning to go in the day (not the goal but would not have minded it happening) but had to - was wearing steel-toed work boots and heavy pair of jeans and did not even get a chance to take them off ballcap I was wearing. guy was unconscious face down when I got to him in the water. luckily just had big bump on head and mild concussion.

so not only fun training but does come in handy.
