# 1 > Looking back over the years, things have really changed,65 years ago at the age of 15, I was voted in as a Junior member, later on I was voted in as president of the junior's, at 20, I became a driver operator, trucks, ambulance, with training. At 21 became fire police,I was asked to be Assistant Director of the Ambulance Board. Last year the wife and I went back to our old home town, called Linwood Pa. I visited the fire station, I asked did you know Chief of Police Russel Chaney?…

I want to take the time, and say. You all, are doing a great job. If it wasn't for you! who would do it!!!!!

The volunteers, You, sometimes never get any thanks. But why do we do it. Only thing I can think of , we love doing it.

Paid firefighters, you also are doing a great job. You have a big job to take care of. That's our cities.

You…
