Saturday morning the Lincoln
Rural Fire Protection District had a flag-raising ceremony in the
parking lot of the Bonanza in Lincoln.
With the ceremony in memory and honor of the lives lost on
Sept. 11, 2001, the men, dressed in their best, gently unfurled
a huge flag at the end of their ladder truck. As the ladder rose and
the flag unfurled, those at the ceremony offered a salute.
Immediately after, the firefighters posed for a picture with Bonanza
owner Brett Borst (pictured below, center). Borst said he had
decided to do a free buffet for all first responders because of the
respect he has for them. He noted that his uncle was a firefighter,
and he's always appreciated what they do for the community, with
very little thanks.
