In 1998, Cooles was in charge of a rescue situation when a young boy named Stevie went missing in a cave. The Fire Captain called for a 14-foot-long ladder to be placed so that two of his officers, T.C. and Danny, could climb down into the pit. However, the firefighters also went missing, and Cooles sent another two men, Glenn and Sal, into the hole. Miles Cooles was played by Gary Grubbs.
