  Humble appreciation for the posting,keepitreal, another sad passing of one of our beloved  heroes  :-(

  Do you recall what engine company he was with?

  Visited the Hook & Ladder #29 in Manhattan all the responding firemen who raced to the tragic scene all were lost, excepting one who reported sick

  Many more were made sick by the cancer methane gas at was raising from ground zero

  Requiem en Pace

  Condolences to family, friends & all effect by this horrendous loss of some 3000

  Never Forget
