He receives a great deal of pleasure and gain's excitement from watching firefighters put learned skills into practice. "I strive to touch the future of the fire service by passing on my experience, knowledge, and techniques that I have learned over the years. I have written several articles for Fire Engineering Magazine which are available upon request. In today's firefighting world, the amount of actual structure fires has dropped almost 50 percent. I believe training efforts have to be increased at all levels using experienced instructors who can pass on the knowledge."
