TV news show CBS Sunday Morning ran a story highlighting the importance of the volunteer fire service in United States. Newscaster, travel expert, and volunteer firefighter Peter Greenberg provided a glimpse into the noble and long-standing profession and how communities across the country relied on volunteer firefighters to keep them safe. In this season of giving thanks, Greenberg reminded Americans of all that volunteers do to serve their communities every day.

National Volunteer Fire Council Chairman Philip C. Stittleburg, who serves as chief of the LaFarge (WI) Fire Department, was among those interviewed for the story. The segment included footage from this year’s National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service to pay tribute to the dedicated men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect their communities.
