Trench rescues and firefighting stories with Joe Sarber Paulding Cty, GA Fire Department | Ep. 197
In this episode of The Real ResQ Podcast, host Jason Quinn is joined by Joe Sarber, a firefighter from Georgia.
They discuss Sarber's journey to becoming a firefighter. He shares a story about his first structure fire and all the rookie mistakes he made. He also discusses the challenges and lessons he learned from these experiences, highlighting the importance of teamwork and continuous learning in the fire service.
Sarber tells about a rescue he and his team pulled out of an active fire. They had to go into the house, find the victim, and pull the victim to safety. They accomplished this task and their rescue earned him a Public Safety Appreciation Award from the Paulding County Board of Commissioners.
Sarber talks in great detail about the trench rescue call he responded to as a firefighter. He describes the challenges and dangers involved in it and the specialized training required to execute these types of rescues.
Sarber explains how they called in a neighboring county's department with a semi truck setup for trench rescue to assist. He recounts the process of shoring up the walls and using a vacuum truck to remove dirt around the patient. The rescue involved cutting holes in the walls of two houses under construction to create a lifting point.
We conclude our conversation with Sarber expressing the impact of the experience on him and his desire to learn more about trench rescues. Enjoy!

Why do you have to say like before everything else you say..
Damn you're an intense dude lol but thank you for sharing. I love stuff like this. Looking forward to more stories
Thanks for watching! I'll keep working to keep them going.
Hell yeah. It was cracking me up how they went from super professional and straight faced at intro, to still pro, but total cali brah in seconds lol 😂😂🤘
@@tomdaley9154 Its why I love getting into the full story with everyone. The real personality comes out to tell the story. Makes it so much more meaningful. 😃
A friend i went to school with was stationed on Kodiak at the time of this. His last name was branin
Thats fantastic. If you are still in contact with him and he has a few stories, please feel free to send him my way!
This channel doesn’t get enough credit. Love the info and the stories keep up the great work.
Thank you! Consider it done. Trying to make it better and better all the time.
One of the best episodes I’ve ever listened to.
Wow! Thank you!
My Coast Guard Career. 22 years! 1974-2996
An amazing career at that too!
High Year Ten-year Kicked me out. Physically Fitz, too many E7,8,9 with 35 plus yeas!
sweet Kamryn... Your so pretty... Granma Cissy
Hailey!! So pretty.. yall rock!
Great interview! I'd love to know what Rob is wearinf?? Kooks really cool. I suppose it could be a morale patch as well. Please let us know!
Can you be a little morer specific? Wearing in the pictures, the interview? When and where? I'm sure we can get the answer.
Sorry. My initial question was pretty bad. I'm referring to Rob's hat. It has the "R" from the Rainier Beer. But says Rescue something or another. Looks cool and was hoping to see what it says and potentially get it... Thanks for the help and quick response.
@@gmf3385 Let me ask and get back to you.
@@therealresq Hey! I certainly don't mean to be a pest. Just curious if you heard back? Thanks!
@@gmf3385 You're not being a pest at all. I appreciate the reminder. I sure did and here is what he said; "Hey Jason, that hat was a gift from the boys at the 304th Rescue Squadron…(PJs) They came to AHRS as students and gave us hats and patches after graduation…they were rock stars, as I’m sure you can imagine. The hat is a play on Rainer 🍺…which is a PNW staple."
Have you interview any Navy Rescue Swimmer. I'm AW1 U.S NAVY RESCUE SWIMMER and was apart of the saving the life's of a B-52 crash off of Diago Garcia during Operation Desert Storm. Kevin Harrison
I sure have. Quite a few USN Rescue Swimmers. I would love to have your story though. Please feel free to reach out to me. jason@therealresq.com
Love the extra commentary on Denmark on this one!
Thank you. It's given me ideas for more like this too. If you have ideas, please keep feel free to send them.
Ryan just had to tell us about his truck and dirtbike😂
Of course he did!! HAHAHA
Collecting these oral histories is priceless. Keep going Brother. From a USN GMM3, UsArmy CW2.
Thank you so much. Yes Sir!! I love being able to do this. If you have stories you'd like to share, please let me know!
Absolute gentleman.
Agreed for sure.
Hey Jason... its Cissy Lovell love watching your videos! so cool! Hugs
Thank you!!
I'm preparing myself to join the Coast Guard with 1 mission in mind. Become a rescue swimmer. No plan B. I started my journey nearly a year ago at 275lbs not eating or living right. Now I am 185 and very tone. Went from 42 in waist to 30in waist! I've been working on getting my mind right. But getting my body to the point where it can perform has also helped. I swim almost everyday with and without fins and run at least an hour a day and do tons of pull-ups/chin-ups. Plus gym time. I'm 36 years old prior service US Army Helicopter technician and also a medic, but I will join the brotherhood soon. Thanks for the interviews. I really enjoy hearing the stories. Can't wait for more
Keep up the training and the motivation. Most of all, just dont quit!! I look forward to seeing your name added to the list.
Wow!
No doubt!
Nice job Kelly, enjoyed your interview, you still got it son!!
Thanks for listening. I'll be here when you are ready to tell your stories too.
Ali send to you Greetings from Egypt😀
Hello from Egypt! Thanks for checking out The Real ResQ!
Great job Kristin and Jeremy! Miss you!
Thanks for taking time to listen. 😃
What a legend
True statement.
I was an HBU-11 veteran. We didn’t get the TRI-SAR harness until early 2000’s in the Navy.
That means you know exactly what we are talking about. A back breaker for sure. I'd love to hear some of your stories if you'd be willing to share. Reach out to me jason@therealresq.com.
Thomas Cooney is an awesome individual! I work with him from time to time on little embroidery projects he does for Retirees from the Coast Guard.
Absolutely. He hooked me up with a hat embroidered with #500 on it. I was honored.
Buck, we’re you stationed with Eli Cronbeck on JBCC? We precepted him for his paramedic back in 1995
I've reached out to ask.
I just heard back from Buck, he certainly was stationed with Eli. They were together in Cape Cod.
I kinda wish i didnt see this mayb i need more context, because im not laughing about 100 people drowning, but ok mayb my f up version of me is laughing. Serving in aviation, my family could never understand my sense or lack of sense of humor and mayb as a female i shouldnt b this way. I remember one night rtb seeing blinking lights coming from the ground .. im i experiencing some kind of vertigo or delirium over 6hr of flight that day but no it was actually most likely flashlights coming from the ground coastal Miss
Thank you for posting this message. There is a lot more context with this clip. I'd recommend listening the the entirety of Episode 141: Matthew Fader with Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS). He goes into great detail about this rescue and so much more that he was involved with. I'd also recommend Ep 119: Jose Pastor Rescue Swimmer from Spain as he was dealing with a lot of the same issues. I would like to hear more about what you're talking about in your message if you're willing to talk. Please feel free to reach out, jason@therealresq.com.
@@therealresq thank you i watched a few of your shows. I like the very real talk ' make the long story long'. I am sorry if i came off rude. Ill def watched the ones you reccomended. Thank you, please keep doing what you are doing
@@sierra5121 Thank you for taking time to watch and listen to some of these incredible stories. I appreciate all feedback. If you have any stories of your own you'd be willing to share, I'd be happy to discuss further. Please feel free to email me at anytime.
Wow, great interview!
Thank you. 😃
What happens when your in flight and you need to intubate your patient? It takes space to get behind the patient and get to their level to see the vocal cords to get it done? If they’re on a backboard, or in a stokes it seems like there just wouldn’t be enough room in the aircraft for all of that? Thanks
This is a scenario and circumstance situation. It would depend on how long the flight would be. What aircraft you're flying in. The few times I have been involved with this, we were on the ground when the intubation happened. Either stabilize the paitent and tube them before you take off or as soon as you land before you shut down. As you probably know, there are the treatment plans that you can do if you're not in a position to intubate. This is definitely a deeper conversation. Happy to discuss more if you'd like. Feel free to email me at jason@therealresq.com.
Hey, specific to the story I shared, the patient was intubated in the helicopter using a Glide Scope. It’s basically a small mobile version of the laryngoscope/fiber optic camera that you would see used in a surgical/hospital environment. Like any tool, there are limitations but usually they work fantastic and make it easy to visualize your landmarks and place your ET tube. Great question and I hope you enjoyed the episode. Brice Stella
Awesome!!
Thanks for checking it out!
😱 'Promosm'
Aspiring AST, LOVE THIS CHANNEL and this episode. God bless!
Good luck man! Then come back and tell us some stories!
Absolutely love this episode!
Thank you!
Matt Thiessen! I was his mech during a 12-person multi victim scenario in NOLA. We got the call of “a dozenish people in the water” around a debris field in the Gulf. We brought 2 swimmers, the other one Max Mida and deployed them into that mess. They were studs that day. All 12 saved. Good to see him!
Oh heck yeah! I'm ready to hear your stories too. Please reach out to me and let make this happen!!
Very cool.
Thanks for listening!
Great job of making the team shine!!
Thank you. I already know what i want to do for the next one.
Absolutely loved this one. I'm GSAR in Canada and we're I am we don't get skis or water action so I loved seeing this. 🤙🤙🤙 Also that realresq patch is pretty legit.
GSAR in Canada? You have my curiosity and attention. Could I come to you and you show me what you guys do? Send me and email jason@therealresq.com lets see what we can do together. Patch, thank you. We need to get you one!
Fantastic Episode Quinny. 🎉

Great Idea for a channel brother! Matt Zytkowicz here retired cutterman Warrant ENG. I'll mention you on my channel.

Such a great podcast!
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoy it. 😃
My name is Gary. I’m the Gary that Bob is speaking of flying the Otter on his final rescue in the Coast Guard. There was not enough room on the helo to take all 10 of us so they took 4 people to Kanak Island where a Cessna 180 was waiting on the beach to take them to Cordova and to the hospital to be checked out. Bob stayed with me and the other 5 passengers. We chatted until the helo returned. He noticed my U.S. Navy ball cap and asked me what years I was in. I told him 1964 to 1978. He stuck out his hand and said “thank you for serving”. I was stunned into silence. I’m not gonna lie I even got a tear in my eye. I was 54 yo at the time and no one had ever thanked me for wearing the uniform. After that he would stop by when he was in Cordova to check on me to see how I was doing. I’m here to tell you there is no finer human being on this planet. I consider it an honor to know him and call him a friend. “No brain no pain” he would always say when I would see him running on the Copper River Highway. Enjoy your retirement Bob. You deserve it.
Hello Gary. Thank you so much for this message. Please note that I have passed this message on to Bob. I enjoyed listening to his story about you guys. If you'd be willing, I'd love to hear it directly from you. Moreover, if you have any rescue type stories while you were in the Navy, I'd love to hear all about those as well. I would also like to follow Bob and tell you the same, "Thank you for your service!" Feel free to reach out to me at anytime. jason@therealresq.com.
I hope an orca doesmt eat me 😂
Hilarious right!?
Workday is going to be a breeze
I'm glad that this will help make the day a good one!
