I am a fireman myself and work together with these people on a regular basis. I was on the Cottonwood Incident myself just this week, how sad it is that we lose young men on these fires, especially how most are preventable. I feel for their families and cant imagine what their mothers are going through at this moment, and dread the thought of my own mother ever having to feel the same way............... just thoughts, that is all, for now, Danny

 

Our prayers goes out to all the families, and especially the fire fighters! They are truly "HEROES"!!!!!!

 

omg. my prayers go out to them! Please be careful out there.

 

I go back to work for 3 days on Tuesday, and seeing how it has been over 100 degrees in the Inland Empire for the last week, things are sure to get interesting. We will see.....

 

Sorry to hear about it... It truly speaks mountains when a man (women included) give his life in the protection of another.

Did you know them? Is there someway we could send flowers to the families?
If you don't want to send the address over the internet, can I send them to you?

I am sure I will find out more when I get to the station Tuesday and will post an update

 

thank you to you and your men for your heroic efforts

 

+1

condolence to those who have died

 

Be safe.

 

May they rest in peace and know that their service was remembered and appreciated.
