我们的名字re Joe and Melinda O’Malley. [Joe is an 18-year veteran of the Seattle (WA) Fire Department (all 18 years at Engine 9 in the Fremont district), and Melinda has been a registered nurse for 23 years and a trauma nurse at Seattle’s Harborview Medical Center for 20 years.] We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary this May.
We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed, and learned from, the article “What Every Firefighter’s Spouse Should Know” by Anne Gagliano (Fire Commentary, December 2009). Even though we’ve talked about the subject matter for years, it was both refreshing and enlightening to have a new perspective, with data to back it up. We hope that in the future Fire Engineering will consider including more articles of this nature in the magazine.
