Anniversary of past fire storms

Fifty-three years ago this Sunday, 15 firefighters were killed in a wildfire in the Mendocino National Forest in California and unfortunately I was unable to post last night on the anniversary of the 14 fire fighters that lost their lives while operating at a major wildfire on Storm King Mountain when shifting 70-mph winds trapped them and the fire swept over their position. I have made mention to the Storm King Mountain fire in a previous post and there are several sites that give the proper time and information that would give justice and proper respect to the memories of the brave firefighters that gave their lives in service to all of us.

Please take a moment to remember those folks who have passed in the line.
