Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I was BORN & raised with it in my family my grandpop,dad,& UNCLE were all police fire & ems when i was growing up my dad would take me & my friends up to the firehouse and hang out with all the other firefighters.when they would get a call i would help them get the trucks back in service for the next run so when i turned 16 yrs old i joined as a junior member they sent me to fire school.when i turned 18 i was concered a full member i was aloud to fight fire then a year later i went for my E.M.T.A CERT and was running in the bus.still to this day im active in both fields fire & ems.i like saving lives its in my blood.

Top Issues Facing Responders:
I FEEL its safety,safety,safety theres to many of my brothers & sisters getting hurt or killed over things that could have been prevoked i remember in all my classes you are tought safey first your #1.AND another issue is VOLUNTEERS it seems like its drifting out the door no one wants to volunteer anymore i just dont understand they rather collect a paycheck for doing the same job dont get me wrong im not bashing paid fire or ems i have friends that get paid for it i just think they forget sometimes that they were volunteers once before to.
