Hey guys,

I've just about got my app thru the department so I'm new to this whole firefighting thing as a member. A little back ground.
I have several member of my family all ready in fire service. My cus ( vol),uncle (paid) ,Great GF (paid and former chief of the dover air force base). So a good chunk of my family is happy about this.

I do have one question tho. When you get paged, how do you decided weather or not your going to respond. ex, wedding, church, date, banquet, distance, etc...


Thanks guys and stay safe!

A VOLUNTEER'S LIFE

A fireman's life is one big surprise,
Usually he laughs, sometimes he cries.
There's always stress, toil and strife,
Hoping he's good enough to save just one life.

His wife understands, when he misses dinner,

If he runs out of church, don't think he's a sinner.

Answering a call, is tops on his list,

Regretting each one he's ever missed.

He tries and tries, but can't make us see,

The happiest men, still work for free.

Jumping from bed, fighting the cold,

Knowing what to do, without being told.

He rushes to the station, jumps on a truck.

Depending on skill, never on luck.

Putting his life on the line, for an unknown friend,

Hoping and praying, it won't be the end.
"The Bravest Men In The World", the title is fitting,

They all do their best, never come close to quitting.

Next time you see them, all their lights blinking,

Take just a minute, to think what they're thinking.
It's a hard job, so show them you care,

And help them out, with a little prayer.
