State: British Columbia

Fire Dept: Vancouver Fire Rescue Services

Year Started in Fire Service: 2007

Rank: Firefighter (private)

Description: I wanted something unique to the city that I worked for, to show my loyalty to the service and the city. I like the somewhat historic look, the maple leaf for my country, and the city scape of Vancouver. The tribal on each side is not only a design that I like, but also hidden in it is the number 343 as a tribute to our American brothers that paid the ultimate sacrifice on 9/11.
