That’s crazy. I was literally in Kohl’s Ranch when that happened. We were woken up and had to evacuate into Payson. Raining ash was exactly what I saw too. 9:03
I'm so sickened by the general populations ability to be grateful one minute and forget the next. They remember their favorite quarter back throw a final second touchdown, pay big bucks to buy the gear and tickets that keep the industry paying ball players for sport but fire, police, emergency, teachers... these people they show to get paid nothing while game players get millions. It's pathetic and dishonors every single person on the planet. It shows who we are as people... really are. "Thank you for saving me, now go put your life on the line for pennies please." It's pathetic. I've never paid a penny towards that industry because of it. I say it now... these are the names everyone should remember... these are the people who should be paid better than average salaries to do what they do. It's all good and well for crisis to make us human but these people live in that crisis world everyday. God forgive us for failing them.
Maybe not for this event, but from my little student's chair it looks like Firefighters need their own hand signals to communicate when all they can do is see their target. Radio out, Locomotive fire sound, across the gorge/draw/ etc. [Not fine hand configurations ... but arm and hand signals. Military Special ops have theirs for close in contact ... Look at the Indian Sign Language and the sign language for the deaf as a start point ... but get set signals to communicate standard messages in deployment situations.
Lady wanted her photos and 58 Chevy. God damn. I’m so sorry for these people. I remember my first tornado like it was yesterday. Losing our material things hurt like hell. Death hurts even more.
Over time though, maybe we’ve learned to celebrate people’s lives and their worth more than the past and to recognize the harm that traumatic events have on peoples souls instead of just brushing it by the wayside. It wasn’t only those who died who paid the price but those that survived and had to live w/ their survival and brush w/ near death and lifesaving actions.
They didn’t spend much time on the deaths. I guess in 1990 the news didn’t sensationalize death the way they do now. Thankful for those inmate crews who redeemed themselves by giving their lives trying to help save historic property and other lives. RIP, Perryville hotshots.
They did cover the deaths at a special ceremony dedicating the monument to the fallen guys. I was a young kid but was there. Connie chung at that time worked for channel 12 I believe and did the coverage live from Payson. Maybe you could find it but I doubt it because I've been looking myself.

Does anyone know the owner of this channel? Facebook and site links not working.
Hi....the Wildland Fire Lessons Learned Center (lessons.wildfire.gov/) is the owner of this RUclips channel.
