There are lots of Area's we are involved with anymore, Haz-Mat, Terrorism, extrication, in N.C. we got into watercraft fires, water rescue....the list can go on and on. The average guy just can't pick up a knob and flow water anymore it's just to dangerous without having some kind of idea of what your doing.
