My brothers and sisters, I will never forget that day I finished nights and got up to see the 1pm news here in Ireland and saw the 2nd plane go in, I could not comprehend a tower on fire and seeing a plane then I found myself screaming at the TV, I hope that you all, nó i know you all will hold each other close, sending thoughts and love, a police officer in Dublin, Ireland. 👮‍♂️🇮🇪❤️

RIP to the lost ones and prayers to the families and survivors

I will never forget those brothers lost & it was my 20th wedding Anniversary

On my Seagrave(former Woodmere 353) God Bless You, Brothers.!

I will never forget, I was sent down to ground zero from Verizon, met some of Rescue 2 folks. Still wear my Rescue 2 t shirt every 9-11 year. You are a great group of people.

Thank you for keeping my cousin Kevin’s memory alive brothers. ❤

Rescue Company 2 shared Firehouse Pride's video.

3 weeks ago

Firehouse Pride
A quick post of ours from 2016 has found some new life as of late so we wanted to take a quick second to share the kitchen scene we referenced from the awesome documentary “Still Riding” for those left out of the loop. If you haven’t watched the full doc, do yourself a favor and find it on the YouTube machine and make your whole company watch it together for Family Movie Night. There are a lot of amazing men in that documentary with a love of the craft few can comprehend. At the Rescues the job is not just what you do, it’s who you are. They are gone but not forgotten, and their insight will live on each time we share their knowledge with one another. Onward.

Our Repost - The Great Equalizer

"You sit down in the kitchen you are up for grabs, it doesn't matter if you're the new kid or senior man, it's the great equalizer." Captain Philip Ruvolo RESCUE 2

Captain Ruvolo may have said it best in the documentary Still Riding. A great equalizer, a place where members of the firehouse can come together, bond, bust balls, grow, and learn. Some of the best knowledge can be passed on from member to member.

Do you have a place in your firehouse where members gather? A kitchen table, a day room, a sitting area on the apparatus floor maybe. Does your crew eat meals together. These are things that can make a crew bullet proof. These are things that can bring a crew trust and pride in each other.

The great equalizer. ... See MoreSee Less

I was at the firehouse for a weekend in June 2001. Lincoln Quappe and Kevin O’Rourke was there. It was the best time ever. There was also a guy from squad 288 ( I think. He was from Montauk) working on the rescue. Listening to their stories and watching them work. I’ll never forget that time.

Kitchen was always fair game at Central. We all sat down together as Brothers and Sisters, reguardless of Rank. I Do Miss That.

Best doctors lawyers mechanics etc in the kitchen

Thanks I love seeing old videos of Linc

Never forget and god bless them all and their families.

Great " the Kitchen"

I do miss "the kitchen."

saw it when it first was on tv.I recorded it the next time it was on.

To all the members of the fdny who walked into those buildings on that day you guys are the true definition of the word hero thank you for what you do every day for the New York community

if i’m not mistaken, didn’t Res5cue lose all but one member that responded? also, is there a list of companies that lost every responder that day?

Rescue #2 May the men working that day rest in peace. The men and women working for the NYFD and NYPD may they always always be strong and keep NYC safe. Believe me we will never forget...................

Can't help but think this was on made on purpose. (look at the plate)

RIP hero’s! Prayers for all 343...🙏🙏..so many great friends lost that horrible day.. #NeverForget!!!! Ever!!

Remember the day like it was yesterday. We will never forget.

Thanks to all for your service. RIP.

Rest easy brothers.

Gone but not and never to be forgotten

Is this big blue?

Never Forget.

we will never forget it

Rest In Peace gentlemen...

It is with extreme sadness we learn the death of active FF George Scheer, E-249 who passed away early this morning while off-duty. George was truly a great guy. He loved being a firefighter, would work where ever he was needed. He had such an outgoing, friendly personality. It was an honor to have worked with him, to have known him & call him my friend. ...

Our NYC hearts & thoughts go out to Howard County Fire & Rescue, MD. At approximately 0200hrs, FF Nathan Flynn responded to a residential fire that began after a reported possible lightning strike. When crews arrived, heavy smoke was visible & firefighters began an interior attack on the home. While inside, Flynn fell through the floor & Mayday was called. Flynn was quickly removed by the Rapid Intervention Team & taken to Howard County General Hospital where he passed away as a result of his injuries. ... See MoreSee Less
