Throughout history you can find countless stories of ordinary people displaying unimaginable courage in the face of danger. Then there are those that choose to train and plan for handling disasters. Those that rush in when everyone else is running out. Most of our nation is protected by volunteer firefighters. These are everyday people with real lives and real stories that choose to respond to calls for help becuase their communities need them. Regardless of which community type you live in, all of your firefighters share the same goals and objectives. These men and women are willing to go into harms way to save lives, extinguish fires, control hazardous materials spills, rescue the trapped or injured, clear the roads, evacuate the people and whatever else is needed for their communities to remain safe or return to normal following a disaster. From the Orange Rural Fire Department, THANK YOU to all firefighters. Keep doing what you do. #orfd #firefighter #volunteerfirefighter #Hero #dragonslayedvillagesaved #firstdue #VES #no912 |
