A TRUE LEGEND AMONG US

It has been a few weeks since I have posted anything on the site. My computer died, and it has been kinda slow around here. That is until today. While working an overtime shift on Batt 4 today, some info was brought to light about one of their own that I felt worth mentioning. Through some impressive investigative work, F/F pawlowski discovered a secret about F/F Duckworth's past.
It turns out that while Duckworth was the Deputy Chief for the Campton Thorton Fire Dept in northern New Hampshire, he was given the "First Responder of the Year Award". Now, I know some of you are probably sitting there laughing, but I assure you, this is no laughing matter. It takes years of dedication to achieve such an award, and Brother James should be proud of himself. The shrine in his house where the award sits, high over the entertainment stand, with the spot lights shining down on it is a daily reminder for him that he is contributing to society by the giving of time to protect them. O.K. Now I'm laughing.

Below are just a few pictures of Duckworth on the job. I hope to get some pics of the shrine, but I can't promise you anything. He is very protective over it.
