Why I Joined Fire/EMS

At age 17 I was invoved in a very serious car accident that left me in really bad shape. The first on scene was Brooklione Fire Dept. I was so inpressed by their commitment to saving my life that when I recovered I dedcided to go give them a hand. Since then I have became hooked. I have a lot more training under my belt now and am aiming for a full time spot on Springfield MO Fire Dept.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

The feeling I get from pulling that scared teenager from a mva because I know what it's like to be there all tangled up.
