As a fireman, I never exclude that this day could be my last. Life is precious people! Live, love, and laugh, it's just that simple.
Fire Departments across the nation are observing a moment of silence at 1900 hours for our fallen brothers, join me in saying farewell, and rest easy. Flags have also been lowered to half staff untill all are laid to rest. If you fly colors at your place of work, please honor these heroes until the last is laid down.
Lets also remember our troops at this time, and those who have paid the ultimate price protecting our freedom.
