Prayers from Louisiana. It takes a special breed of men to be firefighters.

Our prayers from Arkansas. I am a paramedic and volunteer firefighter. This stuff strikes close to our hearts.

A sad day indeed, my prayers go out to their friends and family. Talk about hitting close to home, Victor Isler was stationed in a department about 30 minutes west of mine back in NY. They say he was also at ground zero which has had me thinking we may have worked along side each other at some point.

Is it just me or have there been alot more LODD in the last year? It seems like every other week another horrible story makes the news.

Rest in peace my brothers

^{A FIREFIGHTER'S
PRAYER}

<tt>^{When I am called to duty, God}
^{Whenever flames may rage,}
^{Give me the strength to save some life}
^{Whatever be its age,}
^{Help me embrace a little child}
^{Before it is too late}
^{Or save an older person from}
^{The horror of that fate}
^{Enable me to be alert and}
^{Hear the weakest shout}
^{And quickly and efficiently}
^{To put the fire out}
^{I want to fill my calling and}
^{To give the best in me,}
^{To guard my every neighbor and}
^{Protect his property}
^{And if according to my fate}
^{I am to lose my life,}
^{Please bless with your}
^{protecting hand}
^{My children and my wife.}</tt>
