Traditionally, the class video is a collage of photographs and video that shows all of the trials and tribulations of what recruits go through to become firefighters. It is shown at graduation to show family and friends, and for recruits to reminiscence over their time together at the Anne Arundel County Fire Department Training Academy. This year, video cameras followed the recruits from their first day through the gate, to their last days of scenario based training. The following video provides a vivid snapshot of the time, commitment, dedication, determination, and hard work that goes into becoming a firefighter, in a way that deserves much more exposure than simply at Graduation. Please enjoy (and SHARE) this video of Recruit Class #56, the newest firefighters of the Anne Arundel County Fire Department and the City of Annapolis Fire Department!
