hey guys.. incase yall didnt know, there was a 9 alarm structure fire in the city of Boston today around 4PM. There was a roof collapse, trapping several firefighters in the structure. 18 people were transported to the hospital. Fortunately, there were no reports of missing residents, so all residents of the apartment are accounted for. sadly though, 2 firefighters have lost their lives. another 8 are at the hospital being treated for their injuries. it is unknown whether or not they will survive at this time. here are some pics of the fire, courtesy of BFD
after reading this, please take a moment of silence for my fallen brothers..

Sad to say goodbye, but what they do saves many, but can sometimes cost their own. RIP to the fallen and hurt men
"risking their lives to save the lives of others"- one of my favorite quotes. its true too. and look at that, no civilians got killed, so ive gotta say, job well done..
