[quote=Anonymous]From WJLA: “None of them signed up because they wanted recognition,” Howard said. “They didn’t do it because they wanted to be thanked and patted on the back and receive an award. They did it because they have a servant’s heart.” That sense of purpose is something Glenn Swain knows well. The battalion chief with Loudoun County Fire and Rescue was among those honored for his role in a lifesaving response when a golf cart overturned on a woman —an experience he describes as the culmination of years of preparation. “Into the job, it’s a lifetime of training,” Swain said. “It’s class after class, promotional exam after promotional exam.” But when the moment comes, he said, there is no time to reflect on that training—it simply takes over. https://wjla.com/news/local/loudoun-county-valor-awards-first-responders-honored-firefighter-recognition-police-ems-heroes-lifesaving-community-safety-honor-hero-recognition [/quote]
