The Firefighter's Goal: 30 In and 30 Out

In this powerful video, we honor the life and legacy of Lieutenant Brian Kyono, a dedicated firefighter with 29 years of service to the San Francisco Fire Department. Brian's battle with stage 4 lung cancer highlights the serious risks firefighters face on the job. Diagnosed shortly after retiring, Brian bravely shared his story to raise awareness and help protect future generations of firefighters. Despite the challenges, Brian remained determined to give back, saying, “If it could impact one persons , then it was worth the Effort.” His journey is a reminder of the importance of cancer research, prevention, and firefighter health. Brian's message: wear your PPE, follow decontamination protocols, and advocate for your health. His story urges us all to be proactive in protecting ourselves from the dangers of firefighting and to embrace safety measures that can save lives. The goal in firefighting is to work 30 years, and retire for 30 years. The sad reality in our profession is we are not living 30 years after retiring. Join us in remembering Brian's courage and spreading his message of firefighter safety. Let’s work together to prevent cancer in the firefighting profession.
