Dear P.F.C.:

Dear Perfect Firefighter Candidate,

I am writing to personally thank you for the service you provide for those seeking a position in fire service.

However, that was only part of the task to secure a position as a firefighter.

Perfect Firefighter Candidate,

I wanted to take the time to thank PFC for the valuable, incomparable service you provide. Through your web pages, I was notified of all the tests for California fire departments.
