NEW: Rescue swimmer Scott Ruskan, who saved 165 people during the Texas floods, says he recently became a rescue swimmer and this was his first rescue mission.
“I got on scene, boots on the ground at Camp Mystic and discovered I was the only first responder there.”
“I had about 200 kids, mostly all scared, terrified cold, having probably the worst day of their life.”
“I just kind of need to triage them, get them to a higher level care and get them off the flood zone with a lot of the Army helicopters.”
Hero.
