re: #339 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)
A friend of mine just retired as a smoke jumper. He’s too old, knees can’t handle it anymore. Now he’ll be teaching it full time.
Crazy bastard. Heroic, crazy bastard.
He actually had a fire go over him once— after he’d done the pre-burn thing they’re supposed to do, and was huddled under his reflective blanket thingy.
