US-ARIZONA-FIRE-TOLL
Firefighter Brendan McDonough (centre L) stands during a vigil and memorial gathering at the Prescott High School on July 2, 2013 in Prescott, Arizona. McDonough is the single surviving member of the 20-member hotshot crew deployed to fight a wildfire in Arizona. McDonough was in his third season with the crew and at his post as a "lookout" on Sunday when the fire got too close to him and he realized he needed to move to a different location, said Wade Ward, the information officer for the City of Prescott, Arizona. The Yarnell Hill fire, which killed all but one member of a 20-strong 'hotshot' team, was the biggest loss of firefighters' lives since the September 11 attacks, and the most from a US wildfire in 80 years.
