Video I put together to honor all the fallen firefighters throughout the years- Sean

I Urge people to not there was no real members hurt in the photo's seen here, these are just photos from my dept. to go along with the poem.


"Firefighter Down" * The tones go out In the middle of the night. The firefighter responds There's a fire to fight. The apparatus rolls As the crew gets ready The Officer's on the radio. The driver holds it steady. As the truck draws near Black smoke rolls into sight, The firefighters are ready To battle the orange light. The flames are growing. They find the occupants are out. The hose lines are charged. This is what it's all about. Two firefighters go in To battle the flame. Something doesn't feel right, They both feel the same. The creaking is now loud, They turn to retreat. The roof crashes in The sound is deafening in the street. Other firefighters are trying To clear through the rubble. They know two of their own Are in grave trouble. At last one calls out, "One firefighter found!" The digging begins To get him unbound. He asks for his partner As they pull him free. They tell him they're looking, And then they finally see. His partner has been found, His injuries are grave. As hard as they try, His life they could not save. Thousands of grieving firefighters Gathered to hear The chaplain say, "Firefighter Down," And from each falls a tear. Author: Mark H. Ware (03-07-03)

    Hi to all i am a firefighter with Redwater TX VFD our hearts and prayers go out to all fallen about two years back we had a fallen brother May god bless.

  • excellent video my heart goes out to the fallen firefighters as we all pray for safety on all of our calls. Be safe out there everyone.

  • Thank you, from a former female firefighter, 9 yrs. in Calif. Received a 2nd degree burn in one fire, but my career ending incident was when an 18-wheeler semi tractor-trailer truck crashed into the rescue squad I was driving one day...totaling it, and damned near me with it. No longer a firefighter... but I still wish my brothers & sisters God's Blessings on them, hoping they return home at the end of each shift.
