What are you waiting for?
As a Firefighter I'm use to responding to people's plead for help. But now the tables are turned. Now I, The firefighter, am pleading for YOUR help!
Besides Firefighting, I am also a Certified Fire Police Officer. And a topic was discusses recently that shocked me! If i wasn't a firefighter, and I was doing traffic control with Fire Police and got killed...i would NOT receive a LODD ( Line Of Duty Death) Coverage!!!
Currently, Firefighters, EMTS, Soldiers, Bishops/Chaplians, and Police Officers are covered in case of a LODD. But Fire Police are not. This shocked me because Fire Police are a unit of a Fire Department therefor considered FIRE PERSONNEL! But according to LODD Coverage Information...Fire Police Officers wont be covered unless they are firefighters. Which is a issue because many people who are Fire Police can not be firefighters due to medical issues such as Asthma.
Me, Im one of the few Fire Police who are ALSO a firefighter!
I AM BEGGING FOR YOUR HELP! Please sign a petition that will be given to my State's Governor and possibly also sent to WASHINGTON DC to RE WRITE the LODD Rules to get Fire Police Covered!
