PETER CAVE: Japan is mourning hundreds of firefighters who died trying to save lives in the March earthquake and tsunami.

Many died trying to shut sea gates as the massive waves thundered towards the shore.

In the town of Rikuzentakata, 49 firefighters were swept to their deaths by waves over 13 metres in height.
