Why I Joined Fire/EMS

The area where I started out in was in bad need of help. Most of the firefighters were in their late 60"s. I had just turned 19 and wanted to help out my community. After my first house fire I was hooked. Have tried to give it up twice and ended up back in it again. Now I am a captain at a good department with a great group of people. Would not trade it for the world. I LOVE MY JOB!

Why I Love Fire/EMS
