We had a volunteer fireman in my city who was going around starting fires and showing soon after to help extinguish them..It was only after his third "heroic" act in a week that police became suspicious.

Congrats biggiy!

Those questions were a nightmare. Kinda hard to remember word for word. The first question was about ventilating a basement and how you go about doing it. A few which statement is in correct, etc. All 125 questions were multiple choice.

It will be Granville, Ohio in a few months.

Ooooh, if you're moving to Granville I have a few choice houses that can be set on fire... Hmmm...

Very nice. Congratulations!

Congratz man!

A close friend of mine recently graduated from fire fighter academy. It was 28 grueling weeks of training he told me. I definitely have a much bigger respect for him now, as I do you. Stay safe though!

Way to go! I had a feeling you'd pass if enough people here believed in you!

So, where do you see yourself ten years from now? You should never stop striving to do the best you can! all that 110% talk coaches talk about means basically "do more than just complete an assignment or task, write it a thank you letter or take it out to dinner or something". Basically, don't pass up on an opportunity to overdo things. Overdoing things is what gets people promoted.

Working full time at fire dept in Kansas(girlfriend lives there) or working full time/volunteering at a dept here in Ohio. I would love to get on at Westerville, Worthington or even Columbus but Columbus is up in the air.

Thanks everyone.

Dude, you're more of a man than me. I couldn't do it, thats for damn sure. I'll honestly say that fighting fires is WAY more manly than being in the Army, thats for damn sure. Congrats man.

I used to live just out of Westerville, just off Sunbury Road, nice little town.
I got my old Duece up to 130 mph between Morse rd. and Sunbury back in the day.
Congrats on your accomplishment.
Be careful out there.

Westerville is far from being a small town. Three fire stations with 111 being the main station. They run a lot of mutual aid with Columbus. Two high schools, three now I think. It's still a nice area. Morse and Sunbury has changed though. If you can make it 130 on Morse rd. I'll be picking you out of the car with a spatula.

It's still a good area to live in and I wouldn't mind working at one of the stations some day.

I came down Morse from High st. and made a left on to Sunbury road, that's when I hammered it.
You don't really want to do 130 in a Duece on any road, it was floating and totally uncontrollable.
That was back in the early 70's.
I was up there to visit a friend in the mid 90's and it had changed so much I was totally lost the whole time.
That's where I grew up and started driving and all, so yea that area holds a special place.

At Morse rd. and High street there used to be a drive in called Green Gables, we all used to race from there.
Morse was even dangerous back then with traffic.

Congrats 😉
