That is very sad . My condolences to the firefighters' families. They risked their lives to help save the people of Arizona.

If the subject interests you and you're in need of some beach reading, consider Norman Maclean's "Young Men and Fire" about the 1949 Mann Gulch fire. He also wrote "A River Runs Through It."

Thanks for the suggestion! Young Men and Fire looks like a very interesting read.

My condolences as well to the American firefighters. May their families find comfort in this tough time.
