Fire Fighting Tales from Maine: That Grin

June 8, 2016

Marcus and I finally got our black helmets Monday night...:-) On the way home from training, I was behind the wheel of that fire truck pictured and I asked my lieutenant (Ryan) if I looked any different now that I have a black helmet? (I wasn't wearing the helmet at the time, of course!) And he said, "Yeah. You now have a grin on your face that you can't wipe off!"

One of the best parts of receiving that helmet by going to HCFA is that I will always know I *earned* it. One burpee, one confined space, one ladder, one bruise, one friendship at a time!
