From the David Russell Brown Collection. For Edward, Michael, and their families. ~Maybe someday he’ll choose me~ Well someone has to mop the dam floors, I guess that would be me. A rookie to this house, I’m just trying to get along, tomorrow I’ll be 23. The training is done, all the men here are veterans, decorated and respected. But I still have the fear of my first time, getting lost, making a mistake, and the fire... It’s like a brotherhood, a second family, together we face whatever comes our way. The job defines who we are, our character, our heart, and sometimes, how and when we pray. I was asked by a friend, why would I choose to put my life on the line. Without a pause or a moment to collect my thoughts, I simply said; For my wife, my children, and the neighbor next door. Just like I did for my country, for strangers I never met., and the Marine Corps. You see God is always searching for new angels. Someone to replenish his own ranks. He looks for strength, for courage, for someone who can truly see. Today he chose from Ladder 15, maybe someday he’ll choose me... DEDICATED TO THOSE WHO PERISHED AND ALL THOSE WHO SERVE.
