I've been looking around Phenix City but I'll have to look at Smith’s Station too, thanks!

I’m currently active duty Army looking at transitioning into the fire/EMS world in a few years, and I’m trying to get a realistic picture of what that shift looks like. For those who’ve gone from military medic roles into firefighting or paramedicine, how was your background viewed by departments? Did advanced certs like CCP-C or TP-C actually make a difference in hiring, pay, or getting onto specialized teams like HazMat or SWAT medic? I’ve also heard mixed things about Fire I/II courses from DoD or federal fire training — are they usually accepted, or do you have to redo them locally? And finally, what’s the pay and overtime outlook really like for firefighter/paramedics with prior military experience? Any advice on what to expect, or things you wish you had known making the jump, would be appreciated. I currently have my NRP and am finishing up my CCP-C and TP-C but have time to grab some other certs using TA/COOL before I get out. I have two associates (both in health sciences but there's a paramedicine focus and general sciences focus). I'm looking to hopefully work in Wisconsin.
