Germany is losing volunteer firefighters

https://www.dw.com/en/germanys-firefighters-on-the-decline-as-aging-strikes/a-49842885

my guess is that in the big cities, the volunteers only get alerted
for huge fires and disasters - but I might be mistaken

in the rural areas - there are no paid guys so the vols handle all of
the business

not sure how much the vols are involved in EMS - maybe not at all

vols have pagers but they dont work far from the station
