As dusk turns to dark for the next few nights, you may notice fire stations, homes, and businesses across the country glow red in respect for fallen firefighters and their families.
Thanks to all across the Wisconsin who are participating.

Messaging is everything. Great job Chief

[J. Biggart @JRBiggart2]

Happy that @MilFireDept Fire Chief @alipski1 sets the record straight when baseless claims are made. This is a sad event, but not due in any part to the MFD. The MFD is strained in every way, and the job that they do under that stress is top notch.

[PBS News @NewsHour]

Life expectancy for firefighters is 10 years less than the average person and it’s not just the fires that present dangers.

@TheStephSy went to San Francisco to look into so-called “forever chemicals” and their possible effects on essential workers. https://t.co/LwggRFpeEA

🔥📸 The @wb_firefighters received new Thermal Imaging Equipment for their 2021 grant. These non-contact devices detect heat and convert it into a visual image that allows firefighters to see what they are unable to with the naked eye.

Studies that showed a need for more staffing, including a rising population and a slower average call for response time. #Wisconsin

[West Bend Firefighters @WB_Firefighters]

Thank you @IAFFGSTLima for sharing our story! He is absolutely right in saying this is a huge priority! #wbfirefighters

[Frank Líma IAFF General Secretary Treasurer @IAFFGSTLima]

Having the right amount of Fire fighters on duty and on each truck should be a public safety priority in every community. https://t.co/fIcFKaqSB6

“We used to be able to have a job opening and we would get 50, 60 applications. Now, we have two or three openings and we’re lucky if we get 10 applications.” - Chief Gerald Kudek, West Bend Fire Department https://t.co/jZJsSAPu6E
