Firefighters from around the country, including four from Oklahoma, were honored Sunday in a special ceremony.

Dozens of people paid tribute to 96 firefighters who died in the line of duty last year. And the hundreds of firefighters killed in the September 11th terrorist attacks. They also honored firefighters still in active duty.

The ceremony in Tulsa's Veterans Park marked the first day of National Fire Prevention Week.
