Why I Love Fire/EMS
I hated the wait, loved the help. It was a job you can walk with your head held high
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Letting runs become mondain, you never know what you will face. Drivers REMEMBER, if you don't get your vehicle to the scene, you can't help anyone. Don't think the throttle and the siren should be at the same speed.
