Why I Joined Fire/EMS

My dad died at the age of 42 and he had been a fireman for over 25 years. Being from West Virginia he had the fire radio and the lights. I was not ready to take them off the truck yet at that time. His best friend then in 1991 told me that I should join the EMs Squad. Now I can not imagine doing any thing else.

Why I Love Fire/EMS
