The fire service is one of the most challenging professions today. It is this type of diversity that inspires most men and women to enter into this profession. However, this business is not for everyone. It takes more than just a desire to help people. It requires courage, dedication, assertiveness, and a willingness to learn and face new challenges. The personal rewards and satisfaction gained from the fire service are often beyond description. You will experience a sense of accomplishment, joy and elation, compassion, and fulfillment.
