how long did they beg for water
Jesus …….have some compassion…….do you really think they didn’t try to get them out?
Angela this is not the time to second guess the work of the brotherhood, this is the time to stand united and mourn as one. We don’t fault, we were not there and we all know how very hard this job can be. I am sure everyone gave 110% in that moment. Lets remember the fallen and let them rest knowing we have the watch.
Angela how dare you question the response of the bravest in Boston…. The BFD did the impossible yesterday….. They contained that fire to one building on a day with 30 mph winds….. The mbers of engine company 13 needed to be told repeatedly not to go back in ( not heard)and if you listened to the whole thing there were other companies that had to be told the same….. Let’s not forget that less than a year ago these two men ran toward a double bombing on Boylston St. Let’s not forget that their brothers did too and all of them would have traded places with them yesterday…. Incident command did the right thing calling all companies out…. We in Massachusetts all remember the loss the Worcester fire department suffered a decade ago…. And again last year when a building collapsed killing two…. How about you question why they aren’t paid well enough for the sacrifice they are fully aware they make make….. For the danger they face….. It’s been 8 years since Boston lost two firefighters in one fire…. Get your head out of your ass!!!! They don’t abandon each other….
Angela, are you a firefighter or ff wife??? No? Then stop!!!! You have no idea what’s its like
Very difficult to listen to as welll at the comments posted previously. For those of you who do NOT understand….our firefighers have a “MOMENT” to make a decision, as we can sit back and ponder a decision tht is needed. They have one second to make a decision not knowing what they are facing, not knowing what is inside, tntering blind I would say. Thank you firefighters/dispatch. Duties are not unnoticed, with this individual for sure. Both children are fighterfighters as well as many friends. You are appreciated.

So sad, please don’t go in any fire with a dry line, too dangerous! RIP brothers!
RIP Brothers.
A few words from Walt Whitman:
I am the mash’d fireman with breast-bone broken,
Tumbling walls buried me in their debris,
Heat and smoke I inspired, I heard the yelling shouts of my comrades,
I heard the distant click of their picks and shovels,
They have clear’d the beams away, they tenderly lift me forth.
I lie in the night air in my red shirt, the pervading hush is for my sake,
Painless after all I lie exhausted but not so unhappy,
White and beautiful are the faces around me, the heads are bared of their fire-caps,
The kneeling crowd fades with the light of the torches.
Distant and dead resuscitate,
They show as the dial or move as the hands of me, I am the clock myself.
Never saw this before. Thank you
RIP Brothers from NANTY GLO volunteer fire department NANTY GLO,PA

RIP Brothers from Ladder42 FDNY
Horrible and gut wrenching at the same time. So many thoughts go through your mind while listening to this. I would have to agree, not something for the Families to hear. I have a pit in my stomach and although I did not know these Gentlemen (Heroes) personally, there is a bond that we share that will never be broken. On Eagle’s Wings you soar. May your Strength be the Strength that enables your Families to cope. Boston Firefighter Family..
