after a challenging day at sea, where the ethos of a firefighter never forsakes those in need, we witnessed the true spirit of teamwork aboard the vailed ships. before this day, our understanding was preexploitative, limited to what existed before us without the courage to experiment. however, today marked a pivotal recommencement with a new vision, where every crew member and rescuer aboard these great vessels understood the depth of our commitment to safety and exploration, much like we do when saving lives from the blaze, vowing never to leave anyone behind.
