A note from Dennis Smith
During the time I was working with Engine Co. 82 in the South Bronx, where we responded to 40 alarms a day, I created Firehouse Magazine and its subsidiary companies – and I also wrote “Report From Engine Co. 82.”
But now I have created something that will exceed the expectations of even those first readers of Firehouse or my books. I have created a new social media company - a great way for firefighters to have real communication directly with firefighters all over the country.
If you learn a lesson, use Wavepeg to share it with your brothers and sisters who are out there with their lives on the line.
Tell them what you know, what you learned, and how to keep themselves safer. I am writing to you now because I need your help in the same way Firefighters helped me to create firehouse magazine.
It’s simple. Just take a look at my new site, Wavepeg.com.Register and use it. It is completely free. That is the lifelong favor you can do for me. Our firefighters will thank you too, and own the “world” of Fire completely - with free and easy access to each other, all 1½ million of you.
Spread your experience and intelligence to firefighters across the nation, or to those in one specific city. Instruct the probies, help all firefighters go up the ladder – to a rescue or to career advancement. Make everyone in the fire service just a little more savvy. It is what you say that counts.
Help me make the world of fire something all firefighters will check out every day. I am asking as a brother who needs you. We have 90 worlds: your profession and all of your interests included. Go to the Fire page - save the baseball and football pages for later - and see how we can together create a communications revolution among firefighters. Your skills and experience, and your company’s, can now be recorded for everyone, to help inspire the courage of tomorrow.
It costs only the good grace of helping a brother - an assist in presenting something entirely new into our culture. It will be much appreciated in all firehouses, and I thank you endlessly for your help. Just go to www.wavepeg.com, and take 5 seconds to sign in.
