First responders, first responders, first responders

Our excellent police, fire, EMTs and other are often called 'First Responders' and while many times they are, many times they are not.

More often than not, the guy in the street is the actual first responder..

The rough looking homeless guy that sees a car accident in the street and sticks his head into a coffee shop and shouts, "Someone dial 911! There's a car accident out here and a kid got hit!" is an actual first responder.

He saw something and was the first person to respond by taking action. 

The guy that sees a fire and picks up his cell phone and reports it is a first responder. Sometimes after a guy calls something in he swings into action and tries to help out. A lot of lives and property have been saved by individuals just jumping in and taking action.

A lot of us have been first responders. I know I have been more than once. 

It doesn't take much to be a real first responder, just a willingness to do the right thing.

We need more of them. Pitch in !
