October 1986. Contact with Exxon Pumping Station #31 in British Columbia has been lost and a rescue team has been assembled.

The environmental activist group, North Wind, had threatened to bring operations to a halt. Could they be behind this sudden communication failure, or is something else going on?

Randolph Booth - Security/Medic
Image


Randy was a committed Scout throughout his poverty-struck childhood and teens, working his way up to "Medical Rover Scout" level. What was initially just another badge to get as a young Scout led to more and more advanced first aid training, and rote learning suited Randy well. By the time he left Scouting, Randy was quite skilled. He immediately joined the RCAF Air Reserve and qualified as a medic. Randy has been able to find steady 'day work' supporting wilderness expeditions, such as the Arctic polar bear surveys, as a team medic.
