November's episode features Fire Chief Mike Albrecht of the 185th refueling wing, at Sioux Gateway Airport here in Sioux City, who also holds the Air Force Rank of Chief Master Sergeant. Aircraft and Airport firefighting are a little different than what you've heard on previous episodes from structural firefighters. Listen in as he describes his unlikely path to the fire service, how the Air Force and federal/state side of his job mix, his time with SCFR, love of family, and hear stories from his time deployed across the globe. Chief Albrecht is a plethora of information and could have gone on for hours. So once again, join us for Before the Tones Drop.
