Nearly 30 Boston firefighters with pending disability claims filed for retirement yesterday, just two days before a new state law ends a controversial benefit that allows them to significantly enhance their pensions if they claim career-ending injuries occurred while filling in for a superior at a higher pay grade.

Of the 29 who filed yesterday, 25 said they were filling in for a superior at the time of their injuries

Yes, I truly believe that even though Boston firefighters spend 1% of their time substituting for their superiors, 86.2% of all the disability injuries they receive happen on those days.

Yes, I do believe that.
