Whenever one does perish in the line of duty the entire state take pause. However when a pilot goes in flying medical samples know one notices. I would rather be the firefighter.

It's very rough; making an entrance into a fire is a common every day theme and doesn't even daunt my father or the other guys he works with. It's just part of the job. I'd like to say I could do it and wish I had the opportunity only to get a view point into his life, but the honest truth is I don't think I could do it for 30 plus years.
