Hello sjkted

Solid insightful ponderings, but in my opinion, they are not plausible enough to explain the exodus of so many.
If this was based on benefits advantages, we would see these type of retirements in numbers every 10-20+ years (depending upon eligibility). However, some of these were less than 7 years in service. You would also have a known position publicly for high turnover, therefore, amongst many scenarios this create, the obvious would have been to re-evaluate the retirement particulars of such a critical position.

I believe I seen a thread with more resignations of first reponders in a short time frame. I will look it up and perhaps post it here.
