Mike Scantlin Goes Beyond Call of Duty

[Travis Davis]

I don't think I can say anything that hasn't been said before. Good job!

I just wanted to thank Mike also for representing the chaser community in a very positive light with all that has been going on lately. People need to start to realize the benefits or having chasers around severe storms and this is a prime example. I know the majority of use are not "medical" professionals, but during a disaster like a tornado hitting a town any kind of assistance can help. In this case, Mike was willing to help some injured civilians and take them to the hospital. Often times we are the first ones on the scene and with that I think we are very valuable to the community as a whole. Congrats again Mike on a job well done!

Great story!!!!...Great job Mike.....Guy's and Gal's....If the only thing that you have is yourself you can help....When you are out chasing carry leather gauntlet gloves and have an old pair of overalls or long pants,boots or closed toe sturdy shoes, paper towels, some bottled water and duct tape..."MacGyver" first aid can save a life....you can make compresses and control bleeding with tape and towels....move debris with gloves, pants and shoes....Take Red Cross first aid when you have the chance...Carry some Purel or other alcohol based cleaners to clean and disinfect your hands...Get a simple first aid kit at "WALLY WORLD" or another box store...You can go as basic as you need to....the most important part is to protect yourselves and stay safe...
