All,
With the very recent tragic loss of the Washington State Firefighters in the last week, we are reminded of the Line of Duty deaths of 2 other West Coast Firefighters in similar fire conditions.

2 Los Angeles County Firefighters gave their lives in the Line of Duty 6 years ago today when they were driven off the side of a road in heavy smoke and into heavy fire conditions in the Mt. Gleason area, south of Acton. Killed in the Line of Duty were FF Specialist Arnaldo "Arnie" Quinones, 35 and Captain Tedmund "Ted" Hall, 47. Captain Hall had been with the LA County FD for 26 years and Arnie Quinones had been with the department 8 years. RIP.
