Fire Departments, Firefighters, Equipment, and our Volunteer Fire Department

We have been fortunate to be able to travel to many places around the world.
When we have spotted a fire department or firefighters we stop to talk with them.
We have found that even if we don't share a language we find friends and often learn things that we can use in our department.
