We all assume that if our house or apartment catches on fire, within a few minutes a squad of fire trucks will speed to our address and a crew of firefighters will jump out of the vehicles to save us and hopefully our possessions and residence too.
Because my mom was a reporter, We had a police and fire scanner in the house. Every now and again, my dad and I would hop in the Chevy and go when a call came in. I actually went on my own a couple of times, and some of my pictures actually got published.
Because of that experience, I have a great admiration for firefighters. They put a lot on the line for people they may not even know.
Public service is it calling that I was never called to, but I know people that were, and I saw firsthand some of the issues they dealt with. It is truly a noble profession.
