Like many little boys growing up in the South, C.J. Chester dreamed of becoming a fireman.
“I remember as a kid seeing firetrucks going by every once in awhile,” said Chester. “I always thought, ‘They’ve got to be going to save somebody’s life; they’re going to put out a fire at somebody’s house.’ It was just cool seeing the fire trucks come by. I’ve always wanted to be a firefighter.”
