It has also helped me understand the power of teamwork because it's the key to successful rescues. Most of all, being a volunteer has taught me the value of every life. ⑤ The work is difficult. It's voluntary, so we aren't paid. We often go without food or sleep. But our primary goal has always been to save as many people as we can. I'm just an ordinary person, but I'll rush into danger, just like everyone else in Blue Sky Rescue. To the people we've saved and their loved ones, I know we're their heroes.
