When The Smoke Clears
What happens to a firefighter after they've spent decades running into burning buildings and rescuing people from sickness, injury and death? When they walk away from the job, how have they changed? What lessons have they learned? What type of person have they become?
When The Smoke Clears
#6 - Master Firefighter Darren Carter
MFF Darren Carter sits down with us to talk about his career. He walks us through his early volunteer days at the Burntonsville Volunteer Fire Department, getting hired by the county, working at stations all over Montgomery County, and his final assignment as the C shift scheduler.
Darren then breaks down his life after he stepped away, his perspective on the job now that he's retired, and the things that bring him the most joy in life.
