World Literacy Crusade - "When man is taught
the mechanics of learning how to learn, of understanding how to understand, he is then
empowered with the ability to create his own future and realize his own dreams. Then, and
only then, is he capable of being responsible and has earned the right to live in peace
and be free."
Fire Jobs for Gs and ex-Gs
I'm looking to put together a program with the U.S. Forest Service that would serve as a
training/ mentor program and lead to a career as a Wildland Firefighter. I know Lito has
written to you before about Perspective (see top of page) and how important this is. I've
decided to step up and see what I can do. I grew up inner-city and know how it is when ya
got to get out. I didn't do it until I was 24 and wish I'd known how sooner. I've been a
firefighter for 12 years now and it's time to give some back ya know? It's hard work but a
great life.continued
