I did not get around to opening it untill tonight after I got back from work..
Soon as I did I was speachless, I set it upon my work bench and happend to see a pic of my son and I started to cry..
I honeslty had completley forgotten about it, having figured it was tossed in with biohazzard trash that tragic evening..
So some back ground.. It was mid evening, about 8ish according ot the doccuments and police reports.. I was on my way home from a long shift on Medic 3 where i was held over a hour awating my relief to come from a different unit in the city.. I leave work as soon as he gets there.. I had on my button up uniform shirt, my EMS pants, Hitech side zip boots and my 2 week old KBC helmet (see pics). I head down cosgrove down to Dorchester rd, figuring I will beat a little traffic if I stay off the interstate.. I am 3 miles from home passing by a new neighborhood being built when a work van turns into me. My Triumph tt600 gets caught on his rear bumper by the forks. Now I am pinned under the bike that is pinned under the work van that has NO intentions of stopping for reasons I dont know. I am drug over 75 yards under the bike. I was taken to MUSC via ambulance, then flown to the burn center in Agusta GA shortly after where I spent 2 weeks healing from the road rash I had from my left ankle, all the way to my left shoulder. Before you ask, there are NO pics of the road rash, nor will I take pics of the scars, they are mine and I dont want to show them..
Anyhow I was pretty much naked from my clothes being drug off of me, and I guess my helmet was sent with me to Agusta...
Anyhow here are the pics a took a little bit ago, I was not going to take any and just trash the helmet, but i think I will put it front and center on the helmet display when I move into the new shop as a reason to buy and wear one.
