Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I work in Emergency Management for the National Guard Full-Time and I am a firefighter with Perry Fire Department. I also recently joined the Camp Dodge Fire Department here at work (military base fire department). I'm working on a degree in EDM and want to work as a Emergency Management Coordinator.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Helping those in need, knowing that what you do TRUELY makes a difference!
Top Issues Facing Responders:
People who want to claim the title "firefighter" but just want to drive the big red truck and flash the lights. You have to BE a firefighter, you can't just play the part.
