I am not sure if any of you have heard of the petition this kid has going and I did check it out at Snopes.com
He wants a Nation FireFighters Day and here is the Story behind it:
An idea from the son of a 9/11 firefighter... So
Before you decide not to read this, just remember that this is a
14 year-old boy who lost his father on September 11th.
All you're asked to do is point, click and type.
He's got a really great idea.
Hello, I lost my Dad on September 11th. He was Chief Edward Geraghty, Battalion 9, New York City Fire
Department. He lost his life with many other heroes that day, victims of the terrorists. Firefighters from all over have come to the aid and rescue of the tragedy in New York and Washington, D.C. Many firefighters lost their lives to save someone else's.
The truth of the matter is, they do this every single day. They truly are heroes. I know many people feel
helpless, especially those who live far from NYC and D.C. We all want to do something to show our
appreciation, our support! I think we can. In honor of the bravery, courage and determination of
American firefighters, there should be a day in our Nation to celebrate and appreciate their hard-work and
never-ending passion for saving lives. I think we should honor all those other heroes who still live today. I'm starting a petition for a National Firefighters Day. Will you help make every September 11th "National
Firefighters Day"? Please join me!
Thank you,

I know many of us feel the same as I do - - helpless, especially those
of us who live far from NY and DC. We all want to do something, show our
appreciation, our support. I think we can...
In honor of the bravery, courage and determination of American
firefighters, there should be a day in our nation to celebrate and
appreciate their hardwork and never ending passion for saving lives.
It is our hope, that the Congress of the United States of America will set aside a Nation Firefighter's Day so that we may recognize these brave men and women that serve this country.
Sincerely,
