Had a few comments about the previous post on the Va. Fallen FF's Memorial Service & was asked "What about the beginning of the service?" So here it is! The ODHFS has been supporting this event BY providing apparatus since the very first one ever held. It is an annual tradition for us to honor our lost brothers.

Had a great day at the Annual State of Virginia Fallen Firefighter's Memorial Service where 8 of our lost colleagues were remembered yesterday. The ending of the service featured the playing of taps, which always puts a tear in everyone's eye. Very disappointing & shameful that our Virginia Governor does not show up & support this event!
