Why I Joined Fire/EMS
Its a tradition in my family, my father volunteered with Hyattsville fire dept and ended up being picked up with DCFD, its the only job I ever wanted to do, it just took awhile to get my afairs in order to pay for all the schooling, and get on the job.
I grew up around the fire service until moving to Florida once my parents divorced.
R.I.P. Al Sondej
Why I Love Fire/EMS
We make a difference
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Fuel charges, economy, and the need for more firefighter/emt's to go through the training to become paramedics.
Brian,
Anything new over there in St Johns County? Recently conducted some helo training with the Florida Army National Guard. If I was on here more often I would have sent you a invite. I have a powerpoint presentation I created for the CH-47 & the UH-60. If you want, email me your mailing address or meet me somewhere one of these nights & I will deliver a copy to you. Email is s3onewire@yahoo.com

Its great that your Mother lives so close to where I began my career. Who knows she may have been in my care when I was serving there in Jax. Good to hear from you . Tell your Mom that I said hello.
I use to own/live at 4710 Harlow Blvd. I wonder how the old home place is ? Maybe some day after I retire I'll move back to Jax I miss it sometimes. David Bladel my husband was also a vol. at Wesconnett he may contact you too.
Hi !! :-) Thought that I 'd drop you a line and see if if you'd like to add me to your friends list . I am sooo glad to find you on firefighter nation
I started my fire service career there in Jacksonville ( 1994) I served as a volunteer when station 25 was Wesconnett Vol. F.D. and served before the city bought them out. I'm married to David Bladel he too was a vol. F.F. when we met. Mail me sometime !! :- ) Dawn (Stokes) Bladel
