Three service vets are receiving the special recognition. And while the trio is no longer active on the front lines of fighting fires and answering rescue calls, their dedication to public safety has been an inspiration to Frederick's Independent Hose Company.
'In their time with us they did what they did to help the community, and it wasn't a question about risking your life,' Jeff Scire with the company said. 'You did what you had to do for those vulnerable families.'
Frederick City Council President Brad Young is paying a special tribute to the trio during Monday night's presentations.
