To have a kindergarten girl recognize what to do in case of a fire means our work is truly serving a purpose. Her mother made a point to come and thank us for the instruction we gave the kids. It is very satisfying knowing you are doing an important service of helping out your neighbor. |
We learned many advanced facets of firefighting in these classes. We learned the basics of firefighting in the Navy and were able to build on this to have the same skills that a professional firefighter possesses. |
We were able to put out the fire and saved most of the house. The residents almost tackled us, thanking us for helping them out. The reaction on their faces when we pulled up on the scene was very gratifying. |
