19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
'Heroes': 19 elite firefighters killed battling Arizona blaze - U.S. News
Unimaginable what their families are going through right now. A whole unit wiped out in the blink of an eye. R.I.P. to some brave men. |

Re: 19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
I am amazed every year at these damn wildfires. For a nation who put a man on the moon in a matter of years you'd think we could advance our technology to make fighting these things a little easier. What a damn tragedy.

Re: 19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
It is truly a gift to live your work life doing what you......love. Most people never have that experience.
RIP Firefighters...you lived on the edge and you died on it.....

Re: 19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
My hats go off to guys like these and my heart goes out the families of those lost. I've seen some specials on fires like this and it's frightening to say the least at how quick mother nature can turn on you. These guys put it on the line each and every time they go out and without a doubt are under-appreciated and underpaid.

I hate stories like this. Firefighters, Cops, First responders, military.... just shows you how little some of us do in comparison each day. Can't say enough about them, and this is just so so sad.

Re: 19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
I must say I am a little disappointed the unselfish and tragic death's of 19 brave men garners so little interest in the WP.........

Re: 19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
These guys went into Arizona and fought the fires there. Then they died in it.

AZ Cardinals step up
Nice gesture, let's see the NFL, or better yet Goodell, match it. How about it, Rog? |

Re: 19 Firefighters Killed in Az. Wildfire
Last night on the news they showed a few of the families and one firefighter left behind 4 children. That just tore through me to no end and I had to change the channel.
