Also, I just want to say thanks for everything you do, anyone in the above fields hold my highest respect.

I'm a volunteer firefighter for Warrior River Fire and Rescue.

I'm a volunteer FF on a bit of a hiatus right now. Gonna get back into it when we move soon (hopefully).

I had been active with Emmaus FD and Cetronia FD for nearly 5 years and I was the truck captain of our squad truck, 351.

This is a great topic! Thanks Scott!

Thanks Scott, great topic

I'm a volunteer FF with Leonia FD (Leonia, NJ). Been there for just about 5 years now and beginning Jan. 06 I'll become one of our engineers. I started volunteering in '98. Spent my first few years on Nyack Fire Patrol, a fire rescue company in the Nyack FD (NY state).

Thank you to everyone on the above list for your service, dedication and sacrifice.

Served 6.5 years in the full time and reserve Army then switched over to the Air Force for the past 6 years.

Did logistics in the Army, don't get me started about my recruiter, and I do intelligence in the Air Force. Served some with NSA, Spec Ops, and currently Chief of Targets for 3 F-16 Squadrons. One of which is the 55th here at Shaw. My current unit is the 20 Operational Support Squadron, better known as the Mustangs.

We must have passed each other since I just moved from San Antonio to Shaw AFB.
