Red Cross; First Aid and CPR?

I have a project due for my First Aid / CPR class and need your help. Here is the assignment;

Research events or times when the Red Cross or someone using
Red Cross techniques have assisted someone in an emergency
situation. Include the Date, location, situation,
and outcome of said event. Write a brief 1 page
write-up of the event. Last paragraph should be a summary of
how you felt about the incident. Would you have
acted in the same manner, or any different? What
obstacles might have been in the way, like checking for
safety, was 911 called? Give me as much detail as
possible pertaining to what happened and the outcome

Thanks to all who can help me

1. Here are a few survivor stories. Go to this link and click on one of the "survivor stories" on the right:

There is one in those that seems like it would be good because it gives you material for acting in a different manner (the people waited to start CPR):
