Join us to pause, remember and honor all of fire fighters and first responders who have lost their lives in the line of duty.  Each was a hard working individual who believed in what they were doing and were steadfast in their dedication while protecting and serving their community.  This time last year, Los Angeles County Fire Dept. Captain Tedmund “Ted” Hall, 49, and firefighter specialist Arnaldo “Arnie” Quinones, 35, were killed near Mount Gleason (Camp 16) in the Angeles National Forest south of Acton.  Their emergency response vehicle went over the side and fell 800 feet into a steep canyon amid intense fire activity while they tried to battle fast-moving flames on the Station fire.

****REMINDER**** Every fire has the ability to be catastrophic. The wildland fire management environment has profoundly changed. Growing numbers of communities, across the nation, are experiencing longer fire seasons; more frequent, bigger, and more severe, fires are a real threat. Be careful with all campfires and equipment.

"I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer." --Abraham Lincoln
