This morning, as the volunteers were in the kitchen enjoying some coffee, the station phone rang. A women was reporting she had a ring stuck on her finger and could not get it off and that she was on her way to the fire station.
Members prepared for her arrival and then tried some techniques that were learned in the @pl_vulcan_fire_training Man In Machine class before having to cut the ring due to the finger being excessively swollen.
