　　A

　　When DeKalb Walcott

　　was just 8 years old,his father,a Chicago fire chief,let him tag along on a call.DeKalb says a lot of kids idolized basketball player Michael Jordan when he was growing up in Chicago in the 1990s.Not him. 

　　“I wanted to be like DeKalb Walcott Jr,” he says to his father.

　　So when his dad asked if he wanted to go on that call with him when he was 8,DeKalb was excited.“I’m jumping up and down,saying,‘Mom,can I go?Can I go?’”

　　The experience changed DeKalb’s life,he tells his dad on a visit to Story Corps.“My eyes got big from the moment the alarm went off.” the younger DeKalb says.“This is the life that I want to live someday.”

　　Now 27,the younger DeKalb is living that life.He became a firefighter at 21 and went to work alongside his dad at the Chicago Fire Department.Before his father retired,the pair even went out on a call together—father supervising(监督) son.

　　“You know,it’s everything for me to watch you grow,” his father says.But he also recalls worrying about one particular fire that his son faced.

　　“I received a phone call that night.And they said,‘Well,your son was at this fire.’ I said,‘OK,which way is this conversation going to go?’” DeKalb Walcott Jr recalls.
