| MORE GOVAC ACTION |
| May 2003 |
| GOVAC crews stood by while Goshen Fire Dept. dealt with a fire in an abandoned cottage. By the time crews arrived the place was totally involved in flames. The rain and the already soaked ground made for difficult footing. It is believed that kids set this fire |

| This MVA happened during the bitter winter. The driver was alone & lost control of the vehicle on a bad turn. She was only about a mile from her home. She survived. Head & Abdominal injuries. Campbell Hall FD & Goshen FD performed the extrication. GOVAC & StatFlight handled patient care. Note how the pole is splintered above the vehicle. The pole also had a transformer on it which made the extrication a little tricky. |

| July 2004 - You are looking at the recovery of a swimmer that was lost the previous evening while trying to cross this deep section of the Wallkill river. Several agencies responded, GOVAC & Goshen Fire Dept were primary. The search was called off due to the time of night and the safety concerns of the responders. The crews returned early the next morning to look for the victim. Which was found in the area he went under. |
| Divers from Monroe, Port Jervis, Sparrowbush were on scene to aid in the recovery. It does not look very deep but it is over 20 feet deep in this pool and has very strong currents |
