Why I Joined the Fire/EMS:

I joined the fire department because I have seen my local fire department get the job done and pictured myself in their shoes. The adrenaline rush and that feeling you get when you know you are helping somebody in need when they need it the most is a great feeling. EMS did the favor for me and now I am returning that favor by doing it for somebody else.
