I was reminded of my first weeks as a medic
My friend and I were off duty driving back to base
Up on a hill from above a car was rolling down he hill
It landed upside down glass everywhere and motor smoking
I found a way to crawl through the glass and searched the back
My friend searched the front
Civilian police and firetrucks arrived
All around were onlookers gathering
A fireman yelled get these people out of here
I didn't want to leave Lee but was ordered to
This car is about to blow
My friend was still inside searching
I was about to go after him when this guy touched my shoulder
He was drunk with cuts and bruises
"You won't find anybody--Ha ha, we crawled out the other side!"
They had joined the onlookers laughing and watching us
They brought Lee to safety just as the car caught fire
I was physically restrained from going after the drunks
