Today my wife is now officially on the St.Paul fire department.
Tell her for me "Welcome to the Family Rookie You have a lot to learn "

Words I remember from my training officer to stay alive by

Don't run or dawdle on the fire ground but move with a purpose

Shit changes: look up, down, and all around then do it over and over again

If you are unsure how to do something correctly tell your partner or the captain, do not try and bullshit your way through. That will get someone killed, most likely you.

and most importantly. you can die out there. So no matter what happened at home always tell 4xboy and any kids you love them before you leave home as they may be the last words they ever hear from you.

She has been part time at three other cities for the last six years.

St.Paul is a hard one to get into, full time only.
