This past weekend, several CALS members joined forces with local Fire & EMS Departments as well as Law Enforcement to support the Pax Naval Air Station Air Show. CALS provided ALS coverage on the airfield as well as on the water along with staffing medic units back in Calvert County. It was all hands on deck starting on Friday with ALS coverage in Calvert as well as supporting multiple Air Show activities. The weather for the event was beautiful and all members had a great time. Units on the standby effected 1 transport and 1 water rescue over the weekend period. A special thank you to the following members who provided coverage over the 3 day event period.
