A superior learning resource!

A superior learning resource!

I am a cadet with the Allan Hancock Fire Academy in Santa Barbara, California, and soon will be graduating from a nine-month night fire academy. As a cadet and firefighter candidate, I realize the importance of maintaining a higher level of knowledge if I am to become a firefighter. Which I will! Firefighting is the greatest job in the world. That`s why I read your magazine. It has in-depth articles that cover all the operations I need, and more. I use this information to stay up on my studies, do reports, and make me the best firefighter candidate I can be. I have received other periodicals that I feel should take lessons from Fire Engineering. I appreciate your magazine and am looking forward to my next issue. I will make sure to send you another thank you when I am hired. Keep up the good work.
