State of Indiana, Grandfathered 2nd Class firefighter, NIMS: 100, 200,300,700, and 800.B, LZ and safety and early activation procedures for Air Evac Lifeteam.
I always wanted to be a firefighter and after college, I knew a couple long time family friends that were in the fire service. So, I joined the same dept. they were with and been with the same department since....I love what I do and will keep doing it for as long as I can...
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Excitement, the Adrenalin rush, saving people's lives and of course, Driving the BIG RED TRUCKS with lights all over them...
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Training...it's a big issue that all personnel needs to get, including ME!!!! Then there's the issues of recuitment and retention of volunteers...
Kevin, I'm touched you liked the video. It takes so many services together to do what you do out there. I did make the video to portray our guys for our 10 year, but it really shows how all of our guys do such great things at all bases, just different faces. :)

Thanks for the reply, I was watching many videos of this year and looking for information. But ask your professional opinion, if you think about operating in an intervention? I like that we keep in touch and ask any information you need about my region Chau comrade a big hug
