    Your welcome! It's great having family in the service, except that they can be a little over protective. So how is it going in fiji?

    it is neat to meet firefighters from around the world and to find out how their firefighting is the same or different from ours here in the states. do you do ems as well or is there a department seperate from the fire? the fire department that i am a member of does both. my nephew's department only does fire/rescue they do not have ems as a part of the department. i have been in the fire service for 5 yrs and wish i had made this choice along time ago. take care and be safe out there.

    Everything's good here. It's a little boring there haven't been any fires lately, so it's mostly squad runs. Staying safe shouldn't be a problem. LOL

    Check out the some of the Groups, I have started up "Close Calls" an area to tell your story of what you did and should not of so others learn. "Roll Calls" this is another group that allows you to tell us about your station and district. "Trainers Corner" is another area that you can read about issues other trainers have or deal with. As well if your not a trainer you can ask questions or state concerns you have. If you have a hard time locating them just go to my site and look at the bottom left hand corner.

    Enjoy, be safe and remember we all come home.
