SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. — Sierra Vista Fire & Medical Services and Cochise College are teaming up to promote local EMTs to firefighters.

“This is unique for us here in Sierra Vista because we’re a bit of a smaller organization, in comparison to Tucson Fire or Phoenix Fire, but we’re able to because we have Cochise College here as a partner. We are able to accomplish this together,” Dever said. “We haven’t historically had recruitment issues in fire service," Dever said."Typically, we used to have a high number of applicants. Departments across the nation are struggling to fill those positions.”

He said he likes that he'll be able to save lives as a firefighter, like when he was in the military. For Tenney, this opportunity is a homecoming that allows him to serve the community he grew up in.
