It was an emotional scene at a SoCal In-N-Out … when a long line of firefighters received a standing ovation from patrons amid the massive, deadly blazes.
Looking a bit exhausted, the long line of firefighters waited for their meal at the popular restaurant chain, which has been cooking up meals free of charge for firefighters … and, of course, the packed joint roared with cheers as they were in line.
God Bless our Brave Firefighters! Thank YOU!💪👨🚒
