Wish we could all play nicely together

Well done to the guys who performed their job well. As we would expect and as we should expect.

That aside it's disappointing that at times of need appears to be beyond the 'powers that be' whom are empowered to co-ordinate this type of situation to put aside their petty self interests and ensure ALL of the appropriate available assets are tasked to work together and acheive the best outcome for those in need.

It could well be debated that in this scenario 'IF' following telephone 'medical triage' it was identified that persons are not injured the medical rescue aircraft could be left available to do what they do best (provide care for the sick and injured of the region) and have the willytown boys take care of the current situation.

I may be wrong!

I'd love to hear your thoughts on such a system.

Oh yes, do us all a favour and play the 'ball' not the 'player' my shins hurt. ta

Stay safe
