About Me:
I've been a member of the Bowers Fire Co. since 2001. I became a captain in Jan. of 2006 and have been one since. I'm also a member of the Kent County Special Operations since 2004. And in 2008 Myself and 3 other members of my department were awarded the 2008 Delaware Heroic FireFighters of the year for our actions at a trailer fire where we pulled a guy out of the structure.
Day Job:
