In 2000 he participated in Project 51, a non-profit organization organized
to not only celebrate the impact
Emergency! (1972) had on rescue and emergency
services but to honor members of the EMS profession as well. As one of
seven committee members guiding this organization, he finished a cross-country tour, traveling with the refurbished Squad
from the television show to such cities as: Orlando, Chicago, Las
Vegas, Long Island, Baltimore and the final stop, Washington, DC. On
May 16, nearly 30 years after "Emergency!" debuted, the Smithsonian
Institute accepted the show's memorabilia into its Natural History
Museum.
