We talk a lot about changing the Fire Service for the Better. What kind of energy are we investing in our rookies. They are our profession's next generation of leaders. Respect goes both ways. Let's talk about what you are doing.
A timely quote can say what a thousand words can't Some are famous, some infamous. Some are just great statements about this crazy busines we're in. Do you have some great quotes to add? Where did they come from? Share your quotes
Whether you are the chief of a small career department, a volunteer company or a battalion or deputy chief in a large urban department there are issues and concerns that you have to deal with. Join us and share ideas and solutions with other chiefs.
This is a group that is avaiable for Officers to gripe, fuss, and complain. Too often Officers have no place to take their frustrations to and just vent. There is no judgement passed here, only understanding and encouragement.
