		<description>&lt;b&gt;you need to ...&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt; you need to research your facts and look outside of your state which probably has 1-2 decent size cities .. raleigh and charlotte if you're from north, and just charleston if you're from south.  do some research on fire depts. from massachusetts.  almost 1000 people per sq. mi. .. i think we know fires.  my dept. pretty much started RIT's too so even though you have 'as much training as me and my officers or you train even more rawr!' IF ..you have any questions, i'll be glad to answer them.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;elk, you said 'many ...&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt; elk, you said 'many volunteers' go through the same training.  maybe where you're from..not where i am. and   'carolinafireman' .. the NFPA does NOT regulate training or academy criteria on a department to department basis, they have a minimum standard which qualifies you as a 'firefighter' .. that's typically what volley's get. Then you have full time depts. (like mine) that do their own academy with training varying significantly. # of runs/working fires=BIG DIFFERENCE..not just the paycheck.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Don't know where ...&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt; Don't know where you get your info but Volunteers are required to go through the same training as Paid guys.  Its called an NFPA Standard,  Look it up.  If you had any clue you would also realize that the only difference between volunteers &#38; paid guys is a paycheck.  There are many VFD's that train just as hard if not harder than many paid departments just to prove people like you wrong. By the way I have just as many certs as the city guys that volunteer at my dept.  Research your facts.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Sully, apparently ...&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt; Sully, apparently it is you that has no clue.   Many volunteers go through the exact same academy as the paid guys.  My department is one of them.  Our paid staff and volunteers attend the exact same academy and are required to perform the same number of training hours after the acadamy as our paid crews.

If DPSST doesn't differentiate between volunteers and paid firefighters, why should you?........by the way, you shouldn't.</description>
