Why I Joined Fire/EMS

I've always thought about getting into this long before the events of 9/11, but it was at THAT time when it all became very clear to me. I wanted to pursue a career in the fire service.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

In this business, there is not one day alike.

Top Issues Facing Responders:

It's all good when the people come together and honor the brothers and sisters of the fire service whenever any of them have fallen in the line of duty. Why not reconize the men and women of the fire service more often during the time when there is not a LODD.
