Default Hard work has paid off. I Made Captain
I found out today I got the captain's position I applied for at my FD. Pretty excited about starting a new chapter in my career and the added responsibilities. If any of you fire guys on here have any advice for me I would love to hear it. I know you guys have some great experience out there!

Congrats that's awesome man!

My advice is to put the fires out and not start them, unless of course you are doing some kind of fire break, then it's ok.
