If you are a first responder, love one, and/or support one, make sure you get yourself a copy of, "Blurred Lines," by Dan Mercer and Clint Brooks. This book gives a real world, first hand insight into the experiences and challenges first responders and their families face.

I had the honor of meeting with Dan and Clint and got to experience their wisdom, insight, and work they are investigating to support this community in ways that have gone without for too long.
