Our brother, Firefighter Roderick McElwain, was honored today in at the IAFF Fallen Firefighter Memorial Ceremony in Colorado Springs. Rod’s name will forever be emblazoned upon the stone walls of that hallowed ground.

We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to the members of Cape Coral Fire Department for standing in our stead and proudly shouldering the responsibility of carrying and delivering Rod’s flag. We can’t thank you enough.

Rod will be missed. He will be remembered. But he will never be forgotten. Rest easy Dr. Fire.

Twenty-five years ago today, 343 FDNY firefighters climbed toward danger while everyone else ran from it. They did it because that's the job, and because the people above them mattered more than the risk. Most never came home.

A quarter century later, the loss hasn't faded, and neither has our promise. We still carry their names, their example, and the weight of what they gave. We remember them alongside the 72 police officers, 8 EMS workers, and nearly 3,000 lives lost that day, and the many who have died since from 9/11-related illness.

Never forget. Always honor.

The Sept. 11 terrorist attacks confronted the fire service with an incident beyond anything it had prepared for.

15 years ago during SB5, politicians underestimated the voice of our firefighters. They tried to take away our rights to negotiate our wages, benefits, and working conditions. They failed because they didn’t listen to the “smaller endorsements”.

Listen to politicians. They will tell you exactly what they are going to do. They will tell you exactly who they care about. And apparently Ohio Firefighters aren’t on the list of “endorsements that matter”.

This landmark piece of legislation would have decimated the voice of union workers in Ohio… but the citizens of this great state answered the call to action and repealed Senate Bill 5 by an overwhelming margin. This is the story of how union workers, public and private, came together to protect collective bargaining in Ohio
