"The 118 deaths in 2007 marked a nearly 11 percent increase in deaths from the 106 suffered in 2006. The lessons that we learn from these tragic incidents serve the fire service best if they are used as the basis of preventing future deaths."

Good to know brother.

All the info I get on firefighter fatalities comes directly from USFA and I post it in the blog. Chief Halton personally asked me to take over this responsibilty for the FE Community which is not something any of us want to post or read about. It's an honor, so I do it with respect and post them on the blog. I add the tag USFALODD to them for later reference.

We are beginning a nationwide effort to collect LODD information to add to our new database which should be coming online within the next week or two. If you have any type of electronic or hard copy file directly related to a LODD incident (factual reports or educational/training response) please send them our way at contribute@honortheirsacrifices.com or

HONOR THEIR SACRIFICES is raffling a Brand New Personalized Phenix TL2 Leather helmet(s) to continue to provide financial support for our mission of providing the fire service with a free to use and easy to access line-of-duty-death lessons learned database. We are hopefully just weeks away from unveiling our new website and when that happens we will be eagerly searching for information from around the country to add to it. This new effort will require another marketing campaign (and this will require some additional funding).

You can purchase the raffle tickets online at our website: www.honortheirsacrifices.com (top of the page, click on the raffle ticket)...or contact John Barrett or Jason Brooks directly.

For detailed information about the helmet, go to our homepage and click on the picture of the helmet for a PDF version of the raffle flyer.

Finally, this helmet is fully NFPA compliant (comes with goggles) and will come with personalized leather shield (front). We will also include one of our HONOR THEIR SACRIFICES helmet stickers with it so that you can tell others about our mission while you wear your new LEATHER helmet.

Thank you for your continued support...please encourage your friends to join our Myspace or Facebook group and support our cause...we can't HONOR THEIR SACRIFICES without YOU!

Take care and be safe,
John Barrett

The Courage to be Safe.....No More History Repeating Events (HRE)...its all about being highly skilled, trained and educated fire service professionals-operating safely,while respecting and understanding the demands and risks of our profession. We owe it to our fallen brothers & sisters who give us a legacy to live up to, to our families, we owe it to our Chiefs and bosses, our FD brothers & sisters, our company, our partners, our community, and to ourselves. Learn from the past, honor the sacrifices...make a difference.
