10 Year Old Fire Chief - A Great Story

4 posts in this topic

Great story, beginning to see more and more stories like this, true brotherhood no matter the age.


Mark Kelly Olson is a 10-year-old boy who was diagnosed with very high-risk, acute lymphocytic leukemia in May and was later adopted by the Arnold Air Force Base Fire Department as their new deputy fire chief. Olson is the son of Mark Olson, an Aerospace Testing Alliance operations controller at AEDC.


Lopes, a retired Air Force chief master sergeant, said, "The response we got was overwhelming, not just from local departments, but from firefighters around the world, including Air Force, Department of Defense, civilian and volunteer fire departments from everywhere imaginable."

As much as it is heartbreaking to see this or any child have to go through the pain and suffering of any disease...it is also good to see such outgoing support for this brave young man. Mark stay strong and God Bless!!!
