A trach breathing hole is one thing; re-inflating a lung is very different.

In the BSA (1960), I learned the trach breathing hole cut/insertion using a variety of different tubes: pen cavity, multiple straws, funnel etc.

Getting thru the chest cavity and into a lung to reinflate, is a whole ‘nother can-o-worms.
