Firefighters Turn Out in Pink This October Firefi Firefighters Turn Out in Pink This October Firefighters across the United States and Canada are showing their support in the fight against breast cancer by wearing pink throughout October. As dedicated first responders, #Local935 #SBCoFD firefighters are not only committed to protecting our communities during emergencies but also to supporting critical health causes. This October, they are proudly wearing pink to raise awareness about breast cancer—a disease that touches the lives of many, including those within the firefighting community. Firefighters are exposed to harmful carcinogens and chemicals while on the job, making them more vulnerable to cancers, including breast cancer. These occupational hazards have brought a deeper personal connection to the fight against the disease. With an estimated 297,790 new cases of breast cancer projected in the U.S. for 2024, and approximately 43,170 deaths expected this year, breast cancer remains a pressing public health issue. Furthermore, 85 percent of women diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history, underscoring the need for continued awareness, prevention, and early detection efforts. For many firefighters, the commitment to breast cancer awareness is personal—driven by experiences with family members, friends, or colleagues who have been impacted. By wearing pink and supporting breast cancer initiatives, firefighters are not just standing in solidarity with survivors and those currently fighting the disease, but they are also advocating for broader awareness and life-saving treatment options for everyone.

Remembering Cory Norton Today marks four years si Remembering Cory Norton Today marks four years since the passing of SBCoFD Engineer Cory Norton, who fought a courageous battle with Epithelioid Sarcoma until *2020*. For the San Bernardino County Professional Firefighters, IAFF Local 935, this day serves as a reminder of the lasting impact Cory had on all of us. His absence continues to be felt each day. Cory passed away on September 15, 2020, just days before his 34th birthday. He is survived by his wife Tawni, his son Cole, and his daughter Tenley. His career with the San Bernardino County Fire District, which began in 2008 after serving four years as a Paid-Call Firefighter, was cut short by cancer, but his dedication to the fire service and his family never wavered. Cory’s nearly five-year battle with this rare form of cancer was followed by many. His strength, positive outlook, and perseverance through countless treatments and surgeries left a strong impression on everyone who knew him. “Norton Strong” and “Fight On Cory Norton” became rallying cries for those who admired his determination. Cory’s commitment to raising awareness about fire service-related cancers and his devotion to his family remained steadfast throughout his fight. In Cory’s honor, both the San Bernardino County Professional Firefighters, Local 935, and the San Bernardino County Fire District adopted a policy recognizing July as Sarcoma Awareness Month. As part of this tribute, we wear duty t-shirts with a yellow ribbon as a symbol of our continued support for Cory’s family and the cause he championed. Two years ago, Cory’s name was added to the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial in Colorado and the California Firefighters Memorial in Sacramento, ensuring his memory lives on in the fire service community. Cory, your contributions and your fight have left a lasting legacy. You are deeply missed, but never forgotten. We stand with your family and will continue to carry the torch for the causes you held dear.

County firefighters recently engaged in extricatio County firefighters recently engaged in extrication training in Division 5, North Desert service zone. The training encompassed the refinement of skills, exploration of new techniques, and discussions on contemporary challenges posed by modern vehicles. Key focus on Hydraulic Rescue Tools, commonly referred to as the jaws of life, was paramount. These tools serve emergency rescue personnel in extricating victims from vehicle accidents and confined spaces. The toolkit comprises cutters, spreaders, and rams. In the context of today’s automobiles with reinforced safety features, thick pillars, and robust metal structures, the use of Hydraulic Rescue Tools becomes crucial. These tools, powered by pressurized fluid, amplify cutting and bending capabilities, overcoming the challenges presented by the dense metal in modern vehicles. 🚒🔧
