Firefighters Hall of Fame

[nfd2004 750]

We have the Basketball Hall of Fame. We have the Baseball Hall of Fame. Even the Wrestlers Hall of Fame. But is there a Firefighters Hall of Fame. This video might be about as close as it gets. And as the Firefighters Prayer says in it's final sentence, "Pray for them as they go past, every ride could be their last".

 

Thanks for the job you do.

There's a Fallen Firefighters Memorial.  That's the hall of fame for the fire service.

The one Hall of Fame that no one wants to be inducted to! May the inductees be few!

When a man becomes a fireman his greatest act of bravery has been accomplished. What he does after that is all in the line of work.

-- Chief Edward F. Croker, FDNY,
 

 

 

Our recognition comes from within - within our communities, within our departments and most of all within ourselves.  There is no accolade, award or prize that can ever adequately acknowledge the service of a fireman and none of us stand above the rest.  Yes, it's true, some may perform acts above and beyond the call of duty, but the simple act of becoming a fireman has already placed each of us in our Hall of Fame.
