Oh my, it certainly was. The men who brought them off the hill were all members of the Prescott Fire Department, except one -- from the Chino Valley Fire District: Capt. Dan Parker. His son, Wade Parker, was one of the 19.

As one said, a "horrific honor." As in war, you retrieve the fallen and honor them.

Bringing their brothers off the hill
