Wednesday, May 22, 2013  Hey,

In both good and not so good ways, some of the best learning that can be done is from those who have experienced and survived the worst. Specifically, to truly understand what the Charleston (S.C.) Firefighters went through on, after and since June 18, 2007 when they lost 9 Firefighters in the Line of Duty....one would have to be a CFD Firefighter.


There is a new video that is essential for every one of us to watch. New firefighters, old firefighters, fire officers, fire chiefs-everyone. The CFD members have horrifically "been there and done that" ...from the fire, to the lessons learned ...to the total transformation of the CFD in honor of those 9 Firefighters....this video outlines where they have been, what happened, and what they have done about it. You will hear first hand from those who were there-as well as from those that have arrived since that fire-all to honor the Charleston 9.
