Why I Joined Fire/EMS

At first I got in the fire service just to have something to do, and I got addicted. I got to love helping people, the rush, the brother and sister hood, and I loved the sense of accomplishment.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

Just being able to make sense out of chaos.

Top Issues Facing Responders:

I feel the top issues are being able to recruit new quality members and training that is more than just a repeat of the same basic drills.
