    Thumbs up Firefighter...the new era


    Proud to tell ye that I just got reassigned with the Rocky Ridge Fire Department. I had a tour
    of duty there from 2001-2005, and am blessed to rejoin these Men in combat.


    Here are a few pics from my tour of duty:




    Cheers to that!

    I am trying to become a Baltimore City fire fighter. I have taken the written test and had a oral exam. I was told I will hear from them in the middle of october. To me being a fire fighter is a noble and grand occupation. I salute you sir.

    Congratulations Jon. I know you had a lot of pride in your past service and and very happy for you that you have taken it up again. Not to mention replacing your lost "kiltpin".
