DH grandfather was assistant fire chief and he also has an uncle who is a retired firefighter.  Heroes, for sure!!

Thank you to all firefighters, police, EMT, etc...all first responders!

Another day! Why do we have to honor people for doing their jobs. I'm grateful for firemen, but it's a profession like any other.

Not necessarily. In many towns firefighting is 100% volunteer. Volunteer firefighting is part of the history of America.

I believe police/sheriffs have always been paid (except for posses in Western movies?).

@willomenia    Because they'll willingly risk their lives to save the likes of you.

No Willimena, it's not!!! Each day a firefighter reports for their shift could be the day they die.....while putting their life on the line to save someone else. How dare you trivialize the risks they take!!!!!
