Going old school with my dad
Jan 1, 2024
In this episode I sit down with my dad Mike Kerr. We discuss the
fire service back in the day and how it has changed. My dad tells
his story about his love of the fire service as a kid and how he
got started as a volunteer in Prince Georges County in Greenbelt,
to becoming a career firefighter with the DCFD as a Tillerman at
T12.
Our family moved from Prince Georges County to Montgomery County,
where he became a volunteer with the Burtonsville Vol. Fire Dept.
He moved through the volunteer ranks and eventually became the
longest serving chief. He honed his leadership skills and became a
respected Chief through the county.
