Fighting Fires is a calling in Australia

These last 2 days have made me so very grateful for the incredible men and women who volunteer in the CFA and CFS here in Victoria and South Australia

I am an Aussie (with some sad but ingrained Saffer DNA , it's a tough life mate). And I almost have the certificate to prove it. Aussie-fication begins in earnest the first time you use the word mate. Sincerely and without satire, sarcasm or feeling self-conscious.
