Um, no. If I went back and read the CAD I would remember it, but I can't recall what the first one was.

My first one was a structure fire on Bethcar Church Rd. I was a cadet at the time. I had my dad drive me there and when i arrived on scene everybody was running around. I had no idea what to do. Rusty came out and told me to change his bottle and i was thinking oh crap how do i do that. It was a double wide structure pretty much fully involved.

Yea how could I forget. It was a brush fire. I was so excited. I was running all around getting tools. Rusty told me and cory to hop the fence because the fire spread to another yard. Instead fo hopping over it I tried to jump it and my boot hit the fence and I fell straight on my face. It made Cory laugh his ass off. He told me to slow down but I couldnt, i was so happy. This was the one where donnie found a lady in the woods setting fires.
