Get in touch with these guys www.cpvfd.org when you arrive in DC. It's the station at the University of Maryland and they used to have a pretty good ride along program if you want to see how the boys do it in PG County. If you are a true gluttion for punishment, check out http://www.kentland33.com/ or http://www.morningsidevfd.com/ These stations are in a slightly more "active" part of town. They ain't pretty, but they are dammed good fire fighters. Morningside is about a kilometre from the front gates of AAFB, so you could probably walk there.

Good luck and enjoy your trip.

Not sure if you're going to Andrews AFB, but I really don't recommend walking anywhere outside of the fenceline unless you have a detail of OIS agents to go with you. It's not a very friendly area if you catch my drift.
