Manage episode 449513875 series 3549191
Captain Pete Corte is another individual who wanted to be a firefighter from the very beginning. He achieved his goal by becoming a volunteer firefighter at first, then getting hired by Montgomery County Fire and Rescue. Pete worked in Takoma Park, Bethesda, Glen Echo, Glenmont, and Chevy Chase, rising through the ranks. He also spent some time as a safety officer.
After some injuries caught up with him, he knew it was time to hang up his helmet. He has since moved down south, where he now works for the Georgia State Fire Marshall's office. Since retiring, he has found a renewed connection with God and a contentment that had eluded him for many many years.
Pete can be found on Instagram at @thecaptainskitchen and on Facebook at Pete Corte.
