"The NOFD lost 22 of 36 houses and all of the equipment in those 22, and many firefighters continue to live and work from temporary quarters such as school houses, etc. Its unimaginable that in the United States of America that these guys shouldn't have been first in line for help." - The Firebirds, Mark Folse.
The City of New Orleans has recently suffered from a series of serious fires.
"Fire fighters annual salary after one year is $32,870.00", according to the New Orleans Fire Department, which is more than Atlanta, GA, where "The starting salary for a firefighter is $30,783.00" [1] or Baton Rouge, LA, "The starting salary is currently $25,720 a year." [2], but less than the $44,000 after one year of Austin, TX [3].
