Because of the expensive parachute training and equipment required to deliver smoke jumpers safely to a fire's edge, only about 450 men and women of each summer's firefighting workers are hired as smoke jumpers. Todd Onken is a 50-year-old retired smoke jumper. He knew what it's likely to be out there in a wild part of the forest mountains working all night putting out fires because until just last summer, he was a smoke jumper for 23 years. Now he is no longer a smoke jumper. He missed working with his friends, men and women who are strong and physically fit, and not afraid of hard work or a parachute jump into the mountains. He missed the airplane rides and parachute jumps into some of the most beautiful mountains and forests on Earth. But he doesn't miss as much those long, smoky night shifts putting out fire.
由于能確保把空降森林消防隊(duì)員安全地送達(dá)火場(chǎng)邊緣所需的訓(xùn)練和裝備非常昂貴，每年只有大約450名夏季男女消防員被選為空降森林消防員。Todd Onken是一名50歲的空降森林消防員。他很了解整晚都待在山林的野地里滅火的感受，因?yàn)橹钡饺ツ晗奶欤呀?jīng)做了23年的空降森林消防員?，F(xiàn)在，他已經(jīng)不再是空降森林消防員了。他非常懷念和他的朋友一起工作的日子，那些男男女女的身體強(qiáng)壯且健康，而且從不怕辛苦工作或者空降到山中。他很懷念乘著飛機(jī)跳傘到地球上最美的一些山脈和森林中去。但是他一點(diǎn)也不懷念作為夜晚消防員滅火時(shí)，那些漫長(zhǎng)而煙霧繚繞的夜晚。 ——譯文來(lái)自: xc9118
