THE VOLUNTEER FIREMAN

Author Unknown

ANYONE WHO WILLINGLY JUMPS OUT OF BED

IN THE MIDDLE OF A COLD WINTER NIGHT, OR

RUNS OUT OF HIS AIR-CONDITIONED OFFICE, OR

DROPS HIS FORK IN MID-AIR WHILE ENJOYING HIS

FAVORITE DINNER…

TO RISK HIS LIFE…

FIGHTING A FIRE AT

THE HOME OF A NEIGHBOR…

A BUSINESS…

OR A FACTORY…

USING HIS OWN CAR…

AT HIS OWN EXPENSE…

AND PAYS DUES FOR THE PRIVILEGE…

HAS GOT TO BE CRAZY, RIGHT?

WRONG.

HE IS IN FACT,

ONE OF THE BEST FRIENDS YOU EVER HAD.

ONE OF THOSE RARE PERSONS WHO

DEEM IT A PRIVILEGE TO RISK

LIFE AND LIMB

FOR OTHERS…

MEANING YOU.

HE IS A VOLUNTEER FIREMAN.

 Dedicated to all firefighters, whether, male or female, old or young. They are the true hero’s in this world.
