I am a firefighter and first responder. I work in a manufacturing plant for Toyota.

I miss my days in the Navy as a fire fighter.

I was active duty USN for 10 years. I lucked out when I seperated from the nav and fell into a good job in the manufacturing world. I am on year 9 now, although I do miss the days of being on the flight deck. I started volunteering with the fire dept as a way to get some excitement back into my life. If it was not for the fire dept, I probably would have gone stir crazy several years ago. Making contact lenses is far more boring than fixing aircraft on the flight deck, or responding to calls in a fire engine, but it pays the bills. I consider myself lucky to have a fairly secure job that allows me to provide for my family.

Unauthorized burning is against the law and subject to fines.... most likely outside of our department. If it gets away from you and nearby structures are lost, you will also own all of that costs as well.
