I'm not sure that I can answer that, being as no man can know the mind of God, but I'd say He seems to think highly of them. It seems I am being presented with fire opportunities at every turn, and because I am trying to follow Gods will in my life, so it would seem I'm doing what God wants me to do.
I'm going to talk to the folks at the Gallatin Valley Rappellers near Bozeman first, but I just want to get a job on a helitack crew of some sort.
I've been doing wildland fire for four years now, and I'm looking for something a little more exciting than local engine crews.
suntuoso:
I know a lot of ex-military guys who do fire, either city structural or wildland. And they all seem to be very good at it too. On the other hand, I know nothing about Police work, so that might be interesting as well.
