The Calling of an Israeli Firefighter

(Israel Hayom) Maj. Dan Josephberg - A firefighter's job is no ordinary job - it is a calling. Being a firefighter means knowing that at any given moment you may be called up. Being a firefighter means running into places that other people are escaping from. Running into the unknown. Being a firefighter means seeing tough sights, hearing screams from people who are trapped, smelling the scent of death. But being a firefighter, more than anything, is knowing that people's lives depend only on you, that there is no one else who will do the job. Whenever you call - we will come. Whenever you scream for help - we will hear. The firefighters of the State of Israel understand the great responsibility. The writer is a firefighter with the Netanya District Fire Department.
