  • Boston’s bravest are dedicated, devoted and the first official fire department in the nation. And they can always use a helping hand for a hard day’s work. From washing down the truck, to checking the gear, to answering the heroic calls of fire, Ashley’s living the life of a Boston Fireman.

    firefighters never ceases to amaze me. fire is essentially the one thing on Earth every living creature runs from and fast, but these folks run into it faster than most run away from it. simply the most heroic emergency responders I've ever seen.

    Wonder if they talked to her about the fact about 1 out of 4 firefighters will be diagnosed with cancer in Boston. The statistics are staggering among busy departments. The risk of fire or smoke as being the cause of death is dwarfed these days by firefighter cancer due to constant exposures to the chemicals in modern "smoke".

Yes black smoke is your modern day combustibles. But also keep in mind if the smoke is burbulent or not. That also dictates

      Its a problem for all firefighters, but it's even worse for departments with members that refuse to wear and use their gear properly. Early in my career we always geared down once the fire was knocked down, too soon. I remember for a few days after the fire my skin and hair smelling like smoke no matter how much I cleaned up, so it definitely was absorbed into my pores. Car fires have horrible toxic smoke, and I admit I still don't mask up at all of those. Change is tough.

    "100 years of tradition, unimpeded by progress." That being said, I didn't get the "first in the nation" part of the video title. There is really nothing trendsetting or progressive about this department. I'm not saying it's not a good department, I'm just curious as to what the "first in the nation" is. By the way, the guy headed to the burrito joint looks sloppy. Dirty shirt that's too short to be tucked in and look neat indicates a lack of pride, IMO.
