It’s also a feather in the cap for all First Responders in the whole state,” he said.The volunteers who make up the emergency crews are what caught the eyes of “‘Rescue 911” producers.“We receive hundreds of letters.We’re always looking for things with big stunts,” Palluch said.“The interviews were strong, too.
