00:04.210 --> 00:06.043
the significance of highlighting

00:06.043 --> 00:08.760
chairman like chairman jolly who has

00:08.760 --> 00:11.520
spent days educating themselves on how

00:11.520 --> 00:14.280
to be a professional firefighter . It's

00:14.280 --> 00:17.560
important to see what they do with that

00:17.560 --> 00:19.740
education that they have . So it kind

00:19.740 --> 00:22.580
of goes hand in hand that they take the

00:22.580 --> 00:24.636
knowledge that they just learned and

00:24.636 --> 00:26.747
then they turn around and regurgitate

00:26.747 --> 00:30.400
that information , the process of

00:30.410 --> 00:34.180
higher education . I'm a one C Ashton

00:34.180 --> 00:38.020
jolly with the fire department , the 97

00:38.020 --> 00:40.440
civil engineering squadron growing up .

00:40.440 --> 00:42.662
I had a lot of family in the military ,

00:42.662 --> 00:44.773
so I kind of figured I joined at some

00:44.773 --> 00:48.240
point my dad is did 30 years in the Air

00:48.240 --> 00:51.270
Force all Fire . He's a civilian

00:51.270 --> 00:53.860
firefighter . Now my step mom did 32

00:53.860 --> 00:57.550
years , she was load master U . T .

00:57.550 --> 01:01.170
M . My step sister just graduated her

01:01.170 --> 01:03.980
pilot training up advance and then my

01:03.980 --> 01:06.890
older brother is a marine who's in P .

01:06.890 --> 01:10.020
A school right now . So it means it

01:10.020 --> 01:12.820
means the world to my family , you know ,

01:12.820 --> 01:15.200
they love seeing everything I can

01:15.200 --> 01:19.090
accomplish . But them being such like a

01:19.090 --> 01:22.610
military family , just me joining meant

01:22.610 --> 01:24.832
the world to them and then let alone me

01:24.832 --> 01:27.054
getting firefighting as a job just like

01:27.054 --> 01:30.610
my dad . So it's great having people

01:30.610 --> 01:34.100
like who have a legacy in this career

01:34.100 --> 01:36.610
field and that's what really creates

01:36.610 --> 01:39.430
the family of the future because when

01:39.430 --> 01:41.652
we're gone , you know , all you have is

01:41.652 --> 01:43.819
the legacy and that and that's what we

01:43.819 --> 01:46.360
really want . So somebody is thinking

01:46.360 --> 01:49.400
about joining fire , it's a really fun

01:49.400 --> 01:51.733
job , we get to see a lot of cool stuff ,

01:51.733 --> 01:53.900
we do a lot of fun training . It's all

01:53.900 --> 01:55.844
a good environment around the fire

01:55.844 --> 01:58.120
department . And to me whether a job is

01:58.120 --> 01:59.953
cool or not , that's what's most

01:59.953 --> 02:02.120
important is who you're working with ,

02:02.120 --> 02:04.120
who you're around and you live with

02:04.120 --> 02:06.009
these guys half the year . So the

02:06.009 --> 02:08.120
relationships that you get to build ,

02:08.120 --> 02:10.176
that's one of the coolest things you

02:10.176 --> 02:10.570
get to see .
