Why I Joined Fire/EMS

I finished High School at 16 but in Tucson, you have to be 18 to be a firefighter but I could join the USMC at 17. I spent 10 years in then in 2000-I meet my wife who is from Canada moved here & got married I got the chance to be what I always wanted to be a FIREFIFGHTER.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

Who wouldn’t want to be insane & run into fire lol?
