My dad was a volunteer reserve fireman for a few years.
We had a bell in our hallway and when it rang he would jump on his Royal Enfield and head for the station, about two miles across town.
He rarely talked about his call outs but one he did mention concerned a house fire where he was first up the ladder. A mother was in the bedroom window, holding a small child and screaming for help,. Just as he reached the top of the ladder the floor collapsed and they both disappeared.
He never quite got over that one and left the service shortly afterwards.
