19 of the 20 member crew 'The Prescott Granite Mountain Hot Shots' died. Sincere condolences to their families and friends. Truly a huge loss to the firefighting community.

I wonder how well the families get looked after? I keep getting requests for pokice and firemen's benevolent funds. I expect if you wre to put down either occupation on an insurance application you would faint when told what the premiuns would be.
