Finally!

Today, I got issued gear by my fire department for use while going through the Fire Recruit Academy at the local Technical College. School starts on Monday, and I will be FFII certified around Dec. 17th.

Hey, congrats!! All I can tell you is to not get behind and study your keester off. You do that and you will make Chief "Fire Truck" Chuck very proud. MATC is one of the best campuses in the state to learn from. Pay attention young grasshopper.

Also, tell Beef that Dickey and the boys from Eau Claire say hi and we will see him at the muster!!

Keep your head down and your powder dry.

I've gone with Chuck a lot of times to his classes. Even assisted him teach a few of the things. Of all the instructors I have met at various places, I am certain that Rich, Chuck, and the rest of the people at MATC are the best around.
