Paperback. A Jewish firefighter? Are you m'shuggah? (crazy). That's what a lot of Jewish mothers say. I was a guy who grew up in suburban Boston, going to Hebrew School and even planning to be a rabbi. But life throws us curves and I hung on for dear life. When I landed my first professional synagogue job, I had no idea that a combination career/volunteer firehouse was less than a mile from my home. What started as one of many visits to firehouses wherever I found them, turned into signing an application and being voted in as a volunteer firefighter. On top of that, that same night, I met another Jewish young man, who was also voted in and who is still my best friend and business partner today.This book tells my/our story of arriving in the heart of Southern Baptist North Carolina, meeting up by chance and our exploits together for the next almost four years. Could two Jews really fit in? For many, we were the first of the Jewish faith many of our colleagues had met, let alone, joined up!Wherever firefighters are found, their stories are always a game of whose story is better, hotter, funnier! In this book, I share it all, with the generous participation of several of my close friends who served with me. There are stories to make you laugh, stories to make you cry and stories that will make you question our sanity!More importantly, this book explains why firefighters, be they career or volunteer, are a family and forge a bond that can almost never be broken. No matter where we may travel, all it takes is a knock on a firehouse door and the welcome mat is out. So please, join us as I tell you my/our story. Ride along on our calls, be with us for a little friendly hazing, stand next to us as we battle a raging fire or work feverishly to extricate a victim from an automobile wreck.And see, how people from very different faiths learn to live and work with respect, honor and lasting friendship.Most important - a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation in Emmitsburg, MD. Thank you and remember - Every One Goes Home! This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
