Today was the DFR Memorial Ceremony where we honored the members who have died in the line of duty. Hundreds of family members showed up to pay tribute to their loved ones. Dallas Fire Rescue command staff read all the names of the fallen and the honor guard rang the last alarm bell. The ceremony ended with laying a wreath in front of the fallen firefighters memorial at the Dallas Fire-Rescue Training Academy.

Yesterday, Rapid Intervention Team (RIT) performed a demonstration of the Krodle Drill, a firefighter rescue training drill named after DFR fallen firefighter Lt. Todd Krodle. Thanks to a donation by the our RIT was able to create a Training prop to simulate the circumstances in which Krodle was killed on August 14, 2011.

The creation of Krodle drill is a tribute to the life and legacy of Lt. Krodle and provides invaluable hands-on experience to prevent similar tragedies. Lt. Krodle was on the roof performing ventilation when the structure failed, causing him to fall into the attic. Despite a valiant rescue effort by fellow firefighters, he succumbed to his injuries.

This drill will become a mandatory part of DFs training curriculum, ensuring Todd’s legacy and lessons will be passed down to generations of future firefighters.

Today, Lt. John Hampton was awarded the Star of Texas, which is awarded to first responders who gave their lives or were seriously injured in the line of the duty. Lt. Hampton was on the passenger side of fire engine 11 when it hydroplaned, lost control, and slid off the I-345 bridge that connects I-45 and I-75.

We are happy to say he is doing well! We thank you for service, courage, and bravery.

It’s not often our firefighters get to see the outcome of their work. In this case, Dr. Kate Krause was on the verge of bleeding out, 2 months postpartum, when she called 911. DFR arrived within minutes and called an EMS Supervisor to administer a life-saving blood transfusion before arriving at the hospital. This blood transfusion was made possible due to DFR’s blood program, which enables EMS Supervisors to transfuse blood to patients with significant blood loss.

The DFR members were given Special Recognition by and Dallas City Council for their exceptional care.

*Listen to Dr. Krause’s story on the last slide! *

Great job Rescue 11, Engine 11 and 786!
