My name is Al, I am a Battalion Chief with North Naples Fire Resecue which is located about 175 miles south of Tampa on Florida's West Coast. I have been in the fire service since 1981, when I joined a small department located in Suffolk County NY. I moved to Florida 1985 and began my career here. I still keep in touch and informed of the action up in NY. EMT Bravo is an informative site, thanks. Stay Safe!
