A few weeks ago, the Search and Rescue team that I am a part of did a training with an embedded journalist. She ended up writing two stories about us.
These are the home caverns of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Cave Team, the only such rescue team in the state.The 14 members are techies, scientists and self-proclaimed computer geeks, avid cavers all - except for the plumber who doesn't particularly like the underground.

The men took turns introducing themselves. There was Lawrence; radioman Mark Kern, 43, of Irvine; Dave Bullock of Fullerton, the youngest at 27; Steven Kesler, 34, of Pasadena and Arrowbear; Tad Gallistel, 37, of San Diego, a nine-year veteran who is the most highly certified cave rescuer on the team; Matthew Sheasby, 31, a Rancho Cucamonga attorney; and Paul Stovall, 39, of Riverside, whose 10 years on the team make him its most senior member.
