Eddie Koury

Eddie Koury, a U.S. Army veteran, joined the Holbrook Fire Department at a banquet one evening, and an hour later, he was called from dinner to fight his first fire. There, while flowing a stream of water on the blaze, he fell from a ladder and died from the injuries.

This firefighter line of duty fatality occurred before the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial was built in Emmitsburg, Maryland. While this firefighter has not been officially honored at the Memorial site, there are plans to do so when resources are available.
