Currently a local Fire Marshal and Emergency Management Director, also work part time on my own as a Carpenter/ GC. Worked a number of years in professional EMS.
Former enlisted Army Infantry, and more than a few degrees/years/pounds later I am currently : a molecular immunotoxicologist, working in a small bio-tech start-up and a Col.'s "trophy-wife" (always makes her soldiers laugh when I say that). Thank-god for the GI bill and college bonus.
I originally wanted to go LEO, but went even one better , and have been a FireFighter in a small town for about 10 years to keep the adreanaline flowing (and fufill that ever pressing need to find another "brotherhood").
Cheers.

I deal with guys who post pictures of aircraft display screens all the time. I also manage a small fleet of US registered aircraft in the very Democratic country of Congo.
Yuck! I can smell those seats through my monitor.

I have had some experience with this....very, very, powerful stuff! Had to take a few classes in this for one of my grad degrees. I was shocked at what info could be learned from the data.....

You and the dog be safe out there, and come back home. I'd be glad to buy a few beers from you when you return and share them with you.
Mining engineer by degree. Manage a salt mine. Someone mentioned "Dirty Jobs" earlier in the thread. The mine that I manage was actually the subject of a whole episode of the show a few years back (before I was hired).
Retired, after 31 years with the Montana D.O.T.
NOW: tinkering on My "Someday" projects, riding Harley, riding wifey and just plain O~L screwing off.

Thanks Uncle, that particular dog is now happily retired with a military family in Utah. He was nominated last year for the American Humane Society Hero Dog Awards and placed pretty well in the standings, Newsweek's online magazine also did a story about him.
My brother and his wife run the bar and are FANTASTIC people to share a beer with. I'm not likely to be CONUS until the end of the final troop withdrawal but feel free to stop in if you find yourself in the People's Republic of Cook County. The nice thing is that it's closer to Indiana than the heart of Chicago so you can sneak back across friendly lines.

And that's why lineman are around...because even firefighters need heroes!
