It doesn't make a difference where these firefighters live... they come to work, live in conditions that I don't think many of us would live in for the 24 hours they are working, risk their lives every shift, and hopefully go home to their families.
Walt Harris died for Detroit and I don't think he was a Detroit resident, he gave the ultimate sacrifice. The firefighter who was paralyzed in the fire a few years ago was a young man, just married, and he is now forever confined to a wheelchair, another sacrifice. He didn't live in Detroit.
