I had a fall recently that required rescue by SAR from RAF Boulmer. The guys were beyond amazing, their flying skills are truly world class. (I work offshore so am well used to choppers, the RAF SAR are in their own league!!)
I emailed the station telling them I was on way to recovery and thanking them for their excellent service, attitude and skills. I got a lovely reply from the winchman and an invite to visit the base once I was able! I am 2 weeks from getting my cast off so hope to be able to go and thank them in person and was planning to take a slab of beer with me!!
Even just an email, everyone likes to be thanked for a job well done but this seldom happens these days.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
