Just another day. This is from a house fire I was on Tuesday. It was a busy day, within 1 hr we had a possible chimney fire, squad call and this residential fire. At 00:16 sec you can see me on the ladder then on the roof in the smoke.
I use to be an EMT-Basic, I let that go, and use to be 240 certified, I recertified to 120 and EMR, and also hold a HAZMAT Tech card. Its just something I grew up around. This happened Tuesday and I'm still soar on Friday, its slowly catchin up with me, But I won't give it up until it gives me up...
think I will stay with being a medical first responder, less smoke in my face and no climbing ladders. I am too old for that stuff.
