Suit up with one of the busiest all-hazards agencies in the U.S. They get more than 160,000 calls a year. That's an average of 438 a day. Washington DC's FEMS is one of the busiest all-hazards agencies in the US. When they're not putting out fires, rescuing people from collapsing buildings or determining the contents of a suspicious package left on the steps of the White House, their units are protecting the district during special events at the nations' capitol. Meet the men and women whose quick decisions can - and often do - save people's lives daily.
