People have been asking this question since the dawn of time. And, we found out today.
As a trained GSE member, we must be ready at a moment’s notice for anything. Much like Navy SEALs, our missions are always unique, challenging and sometimes filled with danger and intrigue. Well, not so much “danger” because that’s not covered by the insurance. Our training isn’t something that you can really practice, you just kind of come by it naturally I think.
On Monday, Traci and I found a Rotarian in distress. He needed assistance moving his flock of sheep from one paddock to the next in preparation for sheering. We knew what needed to be done and our GSE training kicked in as we sprang into action. With the speed and agility of a sloth, we commenced Operation M.H.a.L.L. (aka Mary Had a Little Lamb).
This is us taking position in the lead car – notice the technique of reserving our energy by riding in the back. Smart.
After the sheep were on the road, we leapfrogged ahead of the flock and took up position on the cross road. Check out Traci’s sophisticated footwork as she readied herself for battle, placing herself between oncoming traffic and a small child. Well, not really “between” as much as “safely behind” the small child.
Finally, we delivered the flock into the paddock without incident. Operation MHaLL was a huge success.
Nailed it.
This is heroic, Ryan! And to think you've had very little training like the Navy Seals. It just comes naturally to you. Bravo my friend!
