What a rush. Received my pager, radio, and uniform last friday but tonight was first training. Got to unscrew fire hydrant and hook up 5" hose and than got to use the nozzle as the lead and than as the second person. Put on the mask and the tank as they wanted to test my strength and did very well. The water pressure was as high as 160 pounds when I said this is not to bad and I think they were surprised with the tank and the pressure I did not flinch.
Got soaked inside but all in all was a very big rush. Being a volunteer is actually cool and I have taken this on like I did my bodybuilding and my life and enjoy the new hobby. I am asking a million questions and I think they know its very serious to me. No calls in the week I have dawned the pager but atleast I am learning new things and will be some what ready when the calls do happen when I am home.
if you have a volunteer fire department near you get involved its fullfilling.
