I totally agree!!! No matter on or off duty as a firefighter,cop or emt you still represent the city,couty or whatever. Obviously he has no compassion. I read the story on fire house and it said he did it so he wouldnt have to pay to board them so...

Welcome to the family where the language and reasoning important the Border is not in our work is to save lives regardless of color, religion or social position, much less. The important thing in our work does not need language to communicate, or borders to help.
Greetings from Mexico.
you’re new friend Filiberto.

I would have to go with B & C, well if you were going to advance a attack line up a ladder, you wouldn't want to charge it and loose your balance, and you could use a ladder strap for securing the hose to rungs while you advance up the ladder so y...
