Interview with a Navy Veteran about navigating childhood with a Firefighter parent
KENOSHA, Wis. - WisconsinEagle -- In the latest episode of "When The Call Hits Home," hosts Jennifer and Ashlee invite listeners into the world of Josh, whose life has been shaped by the sacrifices and service of his father, a retired paramedic firefighter and Navy veteran. This episode paints a vivid picture of resilience, familial bonds, and the profound impact of a life dedicated to serving others.
Growing Up in the Shadow of Service:
Josh's childhood was a tapestry of fascination and anxiety. From a young age, he witnessed the dedication and bravery of his father, who transitioned from a career at a cable company to join the fire department when Josh was only two years old. This change brought 24-hour shifts, unpredictable schedules, and a constant awareness of the inherent dangers associated with the profession.
Despite these challenges, Josh also experienced the warmth and camaraderie of the firehouse, a place he fondly remembers as a "second home" filled with laughter, stories, and the aroma of grilled food. However, the reality of his father's job instilled a deep-seated anxiety, especially during Josh's 5th grade year when the risks of gang violence and raging infernos felt ever-present.
