Thanks guys!! Graduation was great, the ceremony was cool, got to watch a video our class put together, listened to a few speeches, and got our badges pinned on.  Here are a few pics of me, before and after the pinning.  After graduation, I went out with mine and spotter's folks, and then Spotter and Ruger and I went out with the recent grads and our DIs, and wound up not going to bed until about 5am  :yikes: 

Work starts tommorow for me, Station 10  :woohoo:

I'm on an engine right now.  We do 4 rotations, 2 months each on probation.  The brush rigs aren't manned in Reno, when a brush fire occurs, the engine companies at the stations that have them man the brush rigs. 10 has one, so I'll actually be on the engine/brush rig depending on the event :thumbs:  I've got 3 engine stations, 2 of which have brush rigs, and one truck.
