AggieDave 6 #2 July 1, 2013 This has been a horrible year for fire fighters and first responders. Many LOD deaths, too many. [inline F8Industries--01-6.jpg]--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

masterrig 1 #7 July 2, 2013 theonlyski Lets not forget the one survivor. This isn't going to be an easy time for them either. Absolutely. He's sure not going to have an easy time of it. Those men were out here last year fighting a wildfire. The end result was not a single life or structure was lost. I had the opportunity to visit with some of the Granite Mountain Hot Shots and all I can say is, they were quite impressive. My prayers to their families.
