SILENT FORCE vocalist D.C. Cooper who works as a firefighter in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area has updated his MySpace page with the following message:
"We here at the staff at DCPStudio would like to let everyone know that D.C. Cooper is OK and doing well.
"D.C. was released from the hospital after being transported by NorthWest EMS during a structure fire that Station 108 Bellevue FD and 11 other fire companies were battling in the Avalon section of Pittsburgh. D.C., along with three other firefighters, [was] transported after recieving injuries at this blaze. D.C. and a few others recieved injuries mainly revolved around hypothermia and dehydration due to the sub-zero temperatures the fire crews dealt with after being on the fire scene for several hours. An injury to D.C.'s left hand will be re-x-rayed on Monday to rule out a hairline fracture, once the swelling subsides.
"As many of you know, D.C. Cooper is a firefighter as well as an Emergency Medical Technician for NorthWest Emergency Medical Services.
"D.C. wanted us to let everyone know that he feels he was a small part of such a huge effort by many incredible firefighters and companies to bring this fire under control and that he is proud to be involved with such a great team of fire personel.
"We here at DCPS, and D.C. himself, want to thank the well wishes and care shown by everyone. Especially the Station 108, Northwest EMS, and Mercy Hospital Emergency Dept."

SILENT FORCE's fourth album, "Walk the Earth", will be released on February 16 via AFM Records.
