    Goggins doesn’t show up on the NSA (National Smokejumper Association) jumper directory. Does anyone know where or when he rookied?

      I’ll answer my own question. He washed out of training in the U.S. but it sounds like he went to Canada to Smokejump. I’ll give him credit for his creativity in getting what/where he wants.

      ​@@stephenscott2086 do you know how he washed out? I would imagine it was't the physical standards. Thanks for doing the initial research. Its important to fact check everything these days.

      @@L_Train He injured his knee during the winter while he was preparing and it never fully healed. Once he began smokejumper training it just got worse. He made it 1-2 days before he washed out. It was in Missoula.

    Salaam, this guys sometimes amazes me how he talks like a Muslim or like he studied Islamic theology and philosophy. Well said brother!
    Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him told his companions something like this: I’m not worried about you facing tough life, I’m worried about you getting comfortable in wealth and easy life.
    Challenge builds character, makes you closer to the Creator. It humbles you, it calibrates you Islamically.
    Peace be upon you, Salaam.

    “The fire gets put out by us. And only us.”
    -sounds like a big ego
    Firefighting is a team effort! Takes a lot of ppl working together. You can get a lot done when no one cares who gets the credit for it. If he’s American, why is he doing it out of Canada.

      We can put it out if it’s easily accessible, we have lots and lots of water and lots of people to do cold trailing mop if not, we put a line around it and let the fuel burn itself up
