Why I Love Fire/EMS: helping others in their time of need

Top Issues Facing Responders:: The Hero Syndrome. which in my opinion are the people who join fire departments for status and just to say "im a firefighter" when really and truly they just do it to make their selves look good and not for the betterment of themselves or their community

ever wrote..' It also… Continue

There's a photo in my albums showing the one I went to on the first day - it was about ten minutes drive in the pumper. The worst fires were all fairly close to the suburbs of Melbourne. If the wind had stayed in the north the fires could well have spotted into the suburbs.

At 10:03am on August 28, 2008, Lt1206CFD said…: Hey man, how are things up there. I have a friend in Medic school that will be coming up there for practicals, and clinicals soon.

At 9:58am on April 11, 2008, Tony P said…: G'day AJ. Just visiting and skipped through your music - Amazing Grace always grabs me! I know it's a Christian Hymn (and an old one!) and I'm not religious at all, but it's a fantastic bit of music. I went youtubing to catch some other versions - the bagpipes are the ones for me. Scottish ancestry and ex-Army? Probably both!
Little River? We have a Little River Fire Brigade here, all volunteer too. And it's the place the Little River Band was named after. Unfortunately they don't have a website.
