to be on the fire dept. you have to take a fire fight 1 class and a fire fighter 2 class. I like being on the fire dept. because  I like to help people.  The  other firefighter are like my family i would not leave them behind.  If i go in to a fire with a group i will come out with the group. The  fire dept. its like a sports team because you have to work together you have to be in relatively good shape. I like going to fire calls because i might be abel to help some one.
