My Training:: FF1 / FF2/ Crew Leader/ Squad Driver / EMT Paid Call
Work full time as a Respiratory Therapist at a Trauma Center

Why I Joined Fire/EMS: I always wanted to be in the fire service since I was little but it tok me till I was 30 to finally realize it. I moved up in rank quickly, from Firefighter all the way to Engineer. I have a current EMT license also.

Why I Love Fire/EMS: The satisfaction that someone may get to see their family again and may have a home to go back to.

"Roll Calls" this is another group that allows you to tell us about your station and district. "Trainers Corner" is another area that you can read about issues other trainers have or deal with. As well if your not a trainer you can ask questions or state concerns you have. If you have a hard time locating them just go to my site and look at the bottom left hand corner.

Enjoy, be safe and remember we all come home.
