Happiest cop I ever saw was when we were first on scene for a slow roadside grass fire. Handed him the booster line and his grin nearly split his face.

Had a detective walk up to me when we were cleaning up and getting ready to leave and said “hey man I retire next week and just once I want to spray the hose at something” we let him take the bumper line and play with it for a few minutes. I’ve never seen a happier detective.

We were on a brush fire and the deputy was eyeing the tetra. We ended up letting him drive it and he got it stuck in under a minute. High centered it we then got to see his handy work with a shovel.
