The Volunteer Fireman Spirit Across America
Long before today’s tech age George Washington led volunteers on a fire at a distant era. Now about a million volunteers protect lives and property in 20 000 communities. They outnumber paid firefighters ten to one and handle two thirds of fires. Volunteer departments save money and insurance costs, and stay strong with pride in modern gear and compact stations. They form 200 new companies yearly and remain pivotal to home and community protection.
