081 – The Professional Volunteer Fire Department with Chief Tom Merrill

The BAR Boys got together with Chief Tom Merrill, founder of The Professional Volunteer Fire Department. Chief Merrill hosts a podcast on the Fire Engineering podcast series, and also has a series of articles featured in Fire Engineering. We had a long conversation about how professionalism is important in the volunteer fire service. We then discussed how history plays a role in morale and retention. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy it.
