Why I Joined Fire/EMS
My friend Eric Blankeship who live a block away from me that i knew since kindergarten died in a fire and there was nothing i could do. I went down to the Fire Station at 16 to see what it was all about and since then I just couldnt get enough of it. It is the best thing i have ever decided to do, i would never give it up.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Helping the community,
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Criticism, about 9/11/01, people who have many certifications but have never applied them or could if they try...
Certs dont mean anything if you cant apply it, not enough money for volunteer departments,
