Billy… How the Hell have We survived this long?
We have known each other for over 50 years. We both started at BCC Rescue, and I swear we in our own ways were always competing to see who ran the most calls and who was first in a burning building and who had the best rescue. We both made Lt. and for Christ’s sake we both married women who joined the squad. (Who knows why they stayed with us.)
After a while we all moved on. You went fire and joined with Chevy Chase and then DC Fire making a great name for yourself. I went medical and became a PA and back then the jobs were in other states, so we moved several times. But I did continue doing different types of 1st responder jobs as well to compete with you. LOL
We still kept in touch over the years and got together more these past few years. Like a soap opera we seemed to always be able to pick up where we left off.
The rode has been tough at times, but friends and family have always gotten us home Safe and Sound.
