LODD

I'm a member of a national organization of chaplains for fire departments.  As such, I am on an e-mail list that urges prayers for those injured on the job and their families.  The most ominous acronym to appear in the subject heading in any e-mail is "LODD".  It stands for "Line of Duty Death".

Overnight I received just such a notice for two firefighters with the Bridgeport FD.  I pass it along for those who pray: 

Two Bridgeport Firefighters Die Battling Blaze, Others Injured
