    Default 19 AZ firefighters lost.

    Sad day in Arizona. Something went terribly wrong.

    Fire killed 19 members of the 20-member Prescott Granite Mountain Hotshots crew.

    Our condolences to Prescott Fire Chief Dan Fraijo and the entire Prescott community in the tragic loss of these firefighters.


    With temperatures from 114- 120 degrees and wind here in southern Arizona it looks like fire season is on us in a big way.


    Flags are at half-staff in honor of their sacrifice.

    Prayers to the family's fire is the worst way for loss of life

    Hi,

    Today at our firehall's we lowered our flags to half mast and had a moment of silence, to honor and support our firefighter brothers lost, and to support their families.

    As firefighters we know the risks , but it doesn't lessen the sense of tragedy and the huge sense of loss when this occurs.

    My personal deepest sympathy goes out to the families of these men, and I hope with time their pain will lessen .
    Kevin,
