Roll of Honour

Web Content Tile

This roll of honour commemorates all CFA firefighters who have lost their lives in the line of duty since the formation of CFA.

CFA also recognises those firefighters from the Country Fire Brigades Board and Bush Fire Brigades Committee, who fought fires and died before CFA was established.

If you have any corrections, comments, or would like to provide a photo of a loved one, please email volunteerism@cfa.vic.gov.au
