Hello All,
I am curious. I have been noting (As part of FEMA response
during disasters, I get updates from them regularly of significant and
'odd' coincidences) a serious and disturbing trend among fire-fighters.
In the 13 Months since 9-11 some 162 firefighters across the
USA have been lost to sudden, no prior history MCI's. (A heart failure
that few can survive/recover from). An additional few score to being
run-down while directing traffic at the scene of a fire or accident, and
a handful while sitting at rest in the station or at home.
Question: has anyone been privy to this data, and is it out of
line
with previous years, or just more noticable since we lost so many at
the WTC?
tnx de
John Jewkes, SMD US ARMY MARS
