Why I Joined Fire/EMS
Was earning lots of money in finance, then met two firefighters. Realized there was more to life than money and never looked back.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Fires and rescues are universal but no one deals with them exactly the same way!
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Globally - Lack of information sharing.
USA - No unifying national doctrine.
