~ In Remembrance

 

 

 

This list of Remembrance is started from the point of the 'Kings Cross' incident for no other reason than because gathering information on fire fighter losses prior to this date is
                    a difficult process and should in no any way be seen to detract from the level of respect that is acknowledged for all who were lost prior to this date.
