Meet the Firefighter.
Firefighters and emergency Medical Technicians (EMT) respond to all sorts of life-threatening and precarious situations, from fighting fires in suburbia to water rescues on the Neuse river, they answer the call to whomever may be in need. Cherry Point Fire and emergency Services (CPF&ES) are here to provide aid to Marines, Sailors and civilian residents of Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Cherry Point from whatever mishaps arise, night or day. But everyone needs some downtime. Getting the chance to step away from the fight and prepare themselves to save more lives is crucial in their work. Learn how Thomas Saegner, a firefighter and basic trained EMT at CPF&ES, MCAS Cherry Point, spends his time away from work. ( U.S. Marine Corps video by Lance Cpl. Alexander Palmer)
