    Hi Henry,

    Please allow me to introduce you to our special site for responders. It was designed for firefighters and other responders by responders. It is a great place to meet and have fun, join discussions and forums, play games and just have fun on good days. When you have a "bad call" it is a safe place to vent, debrief or let it all out to others that are there for you. Many of those here are trained in CISM and are peer counselors. Others are skilled at even more knowledgeable levels ... all here for you or your friends when needed. With over 25 years of firefighting and chaplaincy I can appreciate the need for as sight that is safe and helpful

    Hey Henry, I hear ya about the websites but this one is different. There is alot of great discussions and information exchanges on here. Also alot of big name instrucors as well. It is pretty crazy about the expertise comment but in all we really do have alot to learn off each other doesnt matter if your in one year or fourty. Check out some of the groups also.They are broken down by section. Chris and I belong to Start water the host is Ray Mcormack from FDNY and it seems pretty decent. I also belong to a NJ site. Im trying to get Freddy on here we will see. Heard your coming the end of the month see you then. Be Safe Ronnie
