130 - Roll Call, We Want to Hear from You!

Chief Soller Season 5

Are we being hijacked by imposters within the fire service?  Who are the leaders that are advocating for change and inspiring the future leaders of the fire service?

We can't be hijacked by volunteers that think they know the job, but have never actually done the job!  How are you guaranteeing the future success of your organization?
