The trucks never stopped coming to the pier to refill day and night to return and fight the huge fires blazing all around us. We were frightened and felt so helpless. We managed to talk to a few of the fireys from a distance and had Whenasimple our grandchildren wave and clap as others drove back out to continue the fight. I passed one young man walking down the street one afternoon, face and hands blackened from dirt and ash, and asked to shake his hand to say thank you. He asked if I was a local and he told me I needed to thank all the fireys who came to help from outside, because Mallacoota wouldn’t have survived without them. I saw trucks from Eltham, Kangaroo Ground, Scoresby, Lara and places I’m not even familiar with. How grateful I am thankyoudoesnot to all those men and women firefighters — they saved the township of Mallacoota and our lives. They are all heroes — dedicated, selfless, courageous heroes — and just saying ‘thank you’ doesn’t seem enough. I hold them with such high esteem and God bless them all. Anne Lehman, Healesville “Toughness and resilience of bush people is there for all to see” seemtobeenough I remember as a kid my dad, who was a long-haul truckie, spent a lot of his life driving through rural Australia and would often tell us about his time in the bush, the THEY’VE been nicknamed the Orange and Yellow Army — the thousands stunning landscape of our country and the great people of firefighters who risked everything to save lives and property in the and friends he made along the way.
