FIRE RESCUE

Get to know Austin Buchwitz

NAME: Austin Buchwitz, 25.

FUN FACT : I have been married to my wife Hunter for just over 3 years but we actually went to middle school prom together and then started dating again after college.

“I moved to Mobile from the Great Lakes last April with my wife and our now 15 month old son. We lived in Michigan City, IN for several months on Lake Michigan and prior to that we lived in Traverse City, MI. But Hephzibah Ga is where we call home and that’s where I began my fire service journey.

I was a firefighter/A-EMT in my home town for several years. I left the fire service and enlisted in the United States Coast Guard in April of 2021 where I became a Corpsman. I love my job in Coast Guard but I also love serving the folks of Theodore.”
