Luftrettung ist ein moderner technologischer Fortschritt, der Kraft und Flexibilität für unglaublich schwierige Aufgaben bietet!Seit etwa 400 v. Chr. spielten chinesische Kinder mit Flugspielzeugen aus Bambus. Erst in den frühen 1480er Jahren entwarf der italienische Universalgelehrte Leonardo da Vinci einen Entwurf für eine Luftschraube, doch 1942 wurde der Sikorsky R-4 der erste Hubschrauber, der in Serienproduktion ging. Starrflügelflugzeuge werden auch als Krankenwagen und Feuerwehrfahrzeuge eingesetzt.Heutzutage sind Rettungsfahrzeuge technologisch hochentwickelt, verfügen über spezielle Ausrüstung und speziell ausgebildete Sanitäter, um Menschen am Leben zu halten, bis sie in einem Krankenhaus behandelt werden können.Wir ehren alle Militärangehörigen am Memorial Day (letzten Montag im Mai) und hoffen, dass Ihnen unsere Auswahl an Fotos gefällt.

The first fireboats from the late 18th century were tugboats, fitted with firefighting equipment.Modern fireboats are capable of pumping sometimes tens of thousands of gallons of water per minute and are very fast. Fireboats are used for fighting fires on docks and shore side warehouses or even wildfires as they can directly attack fires when close by. Fureboats also have an effectively unlimited supply of water available, pumping directly from below the hull.Fireboats are most usually seen by the public when welcoming a fleet or historical ships with a display of their water moving capabilities, throwing large arcs of water in every direction.We honor all service members on 4th of July and hope you will enjoy our selection of photos.

This was the most popular print series ever made in Japan. It was even more popular series ever made in Japan. It was even more popular than the Hokusai series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, which had been recently published and which had influenced Hiroshige tremendously (ISBN 9783756844104).There were 53 post stations along this important road, apart from the start and terminus, in all 55 prints, which are all here in the order from Edo to Kyoto, as in the Hoeido edition (1833-34).
