    Yes Josh I actually had, but I got a very cold detached chat from the chief, I had been in the volunteer side of the service for over 20 years, and paid both military CFR, space shuttle ( 6 yrs), and Civilian now for 15 yrs, Im the Engineer in my career department, in charge of the entire fleet both for training all the drivers, and maintaining for service and repair of all the units, I dont think that I have the desire to go back to the bottom to be inside, I like what I do , drive, pump, aerial operate and Im damn good at it, I dont believe Browns Mills will have the desire to have someone come in and just start operating there apparatus, but Id be more then happy to stop by look at your equipment, and shoot the shit and see where it goes from there. But like I said, I highly doubt that the senior members are gonna want someone walking in and being able to drive and pump right off
