Job Function: Other Senior Command Staff, President / Administrator / Commissioner, Lieutenant, Firefighter / EMT-Basic, Driver / Engineer

Primary Fire/EMS Department:: Pittston City Fire Department ( Eagle Hose Company # 1)

About Me:: I am married with no children. just two Pembroke Welch Corgis and two cats.I have a fulltime job, and work as a part time Firefighter/Engineer
I am mostly assiogned to a 2008 100' Sutphen Tower, and a 1998 KME Mack Engine.I also work part time as an EMT/Driver for the Ambulance service in my hometown.I worked for the Pa. Dept. of Conservation as a Forest Warden/ Wildland Firefighter for around 18 years give or take a few.I am a huge history buff and enjoy reading,and other things.I am known around the station as flea because I was a 98 lb railo when I joined and since hanging around these guys I have blossomed into a 220 lb beer belly! LOL

Why I Joined Fire/EMS: I guess you can call it a passion. I started hanging around the station at about 8 or 9 and it just snowballed from there. I saw the friendships that were in place from the guys and I guess I just wanted to be a part of that type of close knitt brotherhood.
