Why I Joined Fire/EMS

I joined the Charlotte fire department when i was 15 years old as a junior firefighter, the fire chief at the time told me that since i hung out at the fire station every time they had a call, that i should be able to respond also, and the the love for the job grew from there, I also like serving the communities that i live in.

Why I Love Fire/EMS
