Some of you probably rememeber the video I posted a few weeks ago titled, "A Message to the Recruits." If not, you should watch it before we move forward.
Brian is a Company Officer and Instructor from the beautiful state of Colorado. Brian is a Lieutenant in the Denver Metropolitan area for a department that serves 110 square miles, and nearly 300,000 residents. The district operates 15 stations with 340 uniformed members and responds to an average of 24,000 calls for service annually. In his 9th year with this department he has served time in Engine, Truck and the Department’s Rescue Company as both a firefighter and Lieutenant. Brian is going to be writing for us with his interpretation of what it takes to be a Fire Service Warrior. Brian brings a lot to the table and I think his voice will be a very useful one to have contributing to the conversation. Starting on Thursday May 26th. With the addition of Brian to the team we will be regularly sharing content four days a week.
Another thing you might have noticed was that I pulled down the advertisements from the right side of the blog. We did not see any financial gain from those, and I felt they became clutter that took away from the message. Ultimately I produce this content with the intention of stimulating thought, discussion and hopefully reducing firefighter injuries and line of duty deaths through encouraging a single pointed focus on being Fire Service Warriors.
Now, I want to invite YOU to contribute to the discussion as well! Please use the comments section to share your thoughts with us. I would prefer that folks sign their name to their comments, but that's your choice. That being said anonymous comments that are vitriolic stand a chance of being deleted.
Over the course of the next two weeks we are going to be rolling out additional content and looking for your feedback. Keep checking the website and please keep referring folks to what we are doing here. Cheers.
