Why I Joined Fire/EMS

It's in my family's blood (at least mom's side), I'm the 6th generation firefighter....my Uncle was a Lt. for Engine 21 in the City of Shamokin, Pa. So now my cousin and I are continuing the tradition. Plus, what other reward is greater than turning someone's day around in their time of need even if it is as small as checking a battery or giving directions...
