Don't know if you caught this terrific profile on lifesaving stalwart and current Lifetime Achievement Award winner Buddy Bohn in The Beach Reporter.
"Buddy Bohn can see it in a rookie’s eyes. When a lifeguard makes their first rescue, and it all becomes real. You can see in their eyes if they want to do it forever or if it’s too much responsibility for them,” Bohn said. “You’re dealing with life and death. You’re trying to prevent all the trauma and heartache that goes with losing somebody. That’s your motivation.”
