It is tough when we lose young hams. 

An historic building in nearby New Hartford went to a 3 alarm fire on
Tuesday morning.

As a result of risking his life to fight the fire, 26-year-old
Burlington firefighter, Colin J. Mcfadden, KB1YYG, from Bristol,
Connecticut has died from an injury he sustained.

Colin was an ARRL member.

We are flying the ARRL HQ flags at half-staff in acknowledgement and
appreciation of his bravery and membership.
