Summary

Chris "Chappy" Cottle experiences all of the struggles, vicarious and direct trauma that other Firefighters experience, but his own struggles didn't stop him from answering the call to serve those who serve others. Support comes in many forms, and recovery takes many different paths, walked by many different people, and the Chaplaincy has been a staple in Military & First Responder Communities. Chappy shares his own lived experience with us today.
