New Mississippi diver says Hi.

[Lt.Warner]

Hello to all. I am new to the dive world. Though I have snorkeled for years, I just started diving. I am a career Firefighter with over 20 years on the job. Our Dept. has just recently approved the funding to support a dive team. I have been put in charge of this task. My guys and I have just recently completed OW Certification. We are scheduled to start AOW in January. I know that we have a long way to go. But we are looking forward to the adventures.

Welcome to the Board Lt. Warner. Glad to have you here. I look forward to hearing about your adventures setting up your dive team. There is a forum for Public Safety Divers here too....

You probably saw that already though.

Good luck.

That is one thing that I have learned in my career as a Fireman, that is to surround yourself with intelligent people…..Lol

Welcome to the board fellow Mississippian. I don't know if we all are real intellegent. But I must say that there are many divers with many levels of experiance here. If you don't know ask. If someone else ask and you have the experiance relate it to them. Enjoy and have a good time.

WELCOME to ScubaBoard!!!
You've already been given the link to our
Public Safety Divers Forum; from my reading,
I gather they're top notch people.
Welcome to a great new addiction and, for you,
a tough but (sometimes I hope) rewarding
area of your occupation.

Howdy!

And welcome to SB - the biggest, the best, the fastest growing, and the friendliest! If you'll simply click ScubaBoard.com above, you'll be taken to our long list of forums, a wealth of information and resources.

Did you find the snorkeling experience helped with the new scuba experiences - having already breathed thru a mouthpiced, worn a mask and fins? But then, I suppose a fireman would have an easier time than some others accepting new life support gear on your body...?

PM me if I can help you learn your way around; that is - click my username to the upper left, then follow the prompts to send me a "Personal Message."
