For decades, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue has given back to the community by raising money to support local children and adults battling Muscular Dystrophy, and now a fellow firefighter's son is battling the disease. Like any little boy, 10-year-old Logan Petz moves at a fast speed. He enjoys playing with his three younger brothers and loves learning about history. "Weapons, tanks, battleships, marines," said Logan. But as he grows older, Logan's body is forced to fight a debilitating muscle disorder. "We noticed, in the beginning, Logan was not meeting his milestones," said Tim Petz, Logan's dad. Petz said when Logan was three-and-a-half he was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, which is a gradual weakening of the muscles with no cure.
