Imagine: a call for help turns into a trench collapse, a man trapped under a pipe, and no time to wait. 😨
Lawson C. Stuart from the Dyess Fire & Emergency Services Departmennt in Abilene, Texas, doesn't have to imagine it. He lived it, climbing into that trench himself to help save a life.
IAFC TV Host Autria Godfrey sat with Stuart to hear him tell the harrowing story in his own words, the story that led to receiving the Benjamin Franklin Valor Award this year.
