So I saw we had a post for military but why not for those who protect our communities and homes?

Volunteer EMT and paid dispatcher in NYC, looking to move into law enforcement soon. It makes me feel better knowing that there are others in public safety that share this desire, I usually have a hard time reconciling ABDL with this hard charging adrenaline junkie stuff

I'm not either of those, but I respect the work they all do and if my family did not have a company I might/would have joined the Navy or the firefighters

1 year in the Navy was the best year of my life and I love blue/red lights and sirens

I'm military. The wife said I can only risk my life ago much at a time. After the military I can be a volunteer firefighter.

I guess the volunteering as EMT's / Firefighters / whatever is an American thing? Probably due to historical and geographical reasons - i.e. as you have small towns in rural places and so on.

Just found this thread, i dont know if i qualify, while i served in the royal airforce i volunteered for royal airforce mountain rescue duties and did it for four years. Originally created during world war two to rescue downed aircraft crews on both sides from the moutainous areas of the united ki gdom. While this remains the primary role of the teams most often we are called out for civilians lost or injured on the mountains.

As part of my duties i was trained at ambulance technician level of first aid. This enabled me to be a first aider in every job since.

Oh yeah when my older brother left the service, he became a firefighter and is now a watch officer

P.s. there is two chaps at my current work site who are volunteer emergency first responders, they have estate cars with blues and twos and all the kit. They get called out if the ambulance services doesnt think it can get an ambulance there in time.

By day they carry out their normal jobs.
