Why I Love Fire/EMS
I get to play with the big truck......(kidding Of course its that im helping out my fellow citizens at they're time of grave need....)
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Training versus Experience...trained firefighters are good, trained and experienced firefighters are better....., and Sexism still in the fire service? why? There's lots of chica FF's ( no disrespect to my sisters) that can handle they're own and are good, why are there still some of us men worried about losing out to an female? Best firefighter for the job, doesn't matter race, creed, color, sex, religion, ethnic origin (Course we all know us Irishmen and women make the best firefighters LOL) if you can do the job and rock then do it!

IN THE ZONE... LCES (#2 28 APRIL 2011) - Fire Engineering Training Community

Posted on April 28, 2011 at 9:30pm 0 Comments

As I sat here contemplating what to write about this week, thinking about our fellow firefighters that have been injured or have paid the ultimate sacrifice on fires in or near wildland-urban

interface areas

already this year. Two firefighters injured in North Central Nebraska, A firefighter injured in Arizona, Two

firefighters killed and I believe the total injured at one point

was 8 firefighters on separate incidents here in Texas. And I have

Again thanks to all the emails, notes and comments of encoragement I have gotten from all you out there. It is good to feel the family of fire love when the chips are leaning. I say leaning because Now they are falling to down. The MRI came back with a a tear in my ACL and a still possible tear in my miniscus.
