Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I like doing what i do. When i was younger the fire service was very traditional. I learned to be who i am from some of the best, Career and Volunteer. I will never forget where i came from and who helped me get to where i am. There are no distinctions between career and volunteers, there are just FIREMEN. You either have it or you dont. Now i spend most of my time bugging the young guys to help them understand how to survive what we do. if i help one person to make it to retirement, then it was all worth it. I AM OLD SCHOOL. Crawl down the hall and get it!!!But we have to be smarter and safer these days. I CAN LEARN. CAN YOU???
Why I Love Fire/EMS
still being able to do it.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Safety and Training. We have lost a great deal of experience in the last few years.
