- Why I Joined Fire/EMS
- When I was younger, I met and became friends with young man that was a Volunteer Firefighter/EMT in Baileys Crossroads, Virginia. He was a counselor at a summer camp I attended where I learned and he was teaching first aid. He told us about the things that he did as an EMT and Firefighter and I decided I wanted to do that too. As soon as I turned 15, I joined the Warrenton Volunteer Rescue Squad. The rescue squad recently merged with the fire department in Warrenton and I am a Lifetime Member. I don't run volunteer much any more but I am a career Paramedic/Firefighter/Lieutenant with the Culpeper County Office of Emergency Services. I not only get to run fire and EMS Calls, but I am the Shift Commander.

I was an EMT for BMC Norfolk, Naval Station Norfolk. my EMT-B lapsed while I was in Iraq (Sep06-Apr-07) and I have been unable to get it re-newed due to training and work. I will be in Colorado, most likely the Denver Metro area. Thanks for your help.
