As firefighting crews battled the raging fires that began on Aug. 12 at Lake Fire, which erupted in the Angeles National Forest, some of them took a moment of pause and made a heroic rescue. However, it wasn’t a person or a pet they saved but an American flag that was still flying high despite the fiery flames.
The crew from Engine 164 of the Los Angeles County Fire Department stopped by a burning property that was destroyed by the fire and took to lower Old Glory.
