Strong work brother. As a former lacrosse player and the cartoonist who painted that wall- I salute you! Teamwork is not lofty ideal, it is a way of life!
1:45 There’s a very tragic story behind this bay door as well as the caging that is seen next to it. One fateful night in 1985 the members of Rescue 1 responded to a 10-75 upon going 10-8 and their return to quarters they didn’t know that there was a 3 alarm fire next door, the burning building collapsed and completely totaled their quarters. All 8 members were killed that fateful night. After the firehouse was rebuilt the rescue moved back into quarters but a new building was there but they saw it standing tall and they saw a new shiny red bay door their old shiny red bay door at the rear of the building a new kitchen a new sitting room a new office space a new bunk room a new designated high angle rescue training drill location on the roof a new set of tools and tool boxes etc. The old bay door sets a reminder from way back in time when R-1’s quarters was totaled before being rebuilt. After many years, there was a wall of drawn memories of the past for the pre 9/11 crew that survived the attack called the Cartoon Wall in the sitting room of the firehouse done by Paul HashHagen and added members he worked with until his retirement etc etc
Thank you all, Sirs! Thank you for being tireless in the face of bedlam and heat! As a Mom of of our Daughter in the US Army for over 17 years and fought with her troops in Afghanistan, as a Army Mom, thank you for your service and God Bless America! Thank you for keeping us safe and alive, and see tomorrow! ❤Middle River Maryland Baltimore County 😊
Hell's Kitchen, NOT Clinton! Well done. I see Gerard Nevins a few times, that's nice💚. I like to tell this story. Was less than a year on the job, marched in the St Paddy's day parade in 1999 with the pipe band, got an early relief so I could catch the band bus from Boston that morning. Ended up staying over that night in the new yorker with my parents. Didn't want to go home without a shirt for the guy that came in early. The next morning we went walking( me still in my class A's), KNEW NOTHING about the FDNY, the three of us happened on Rescue1. Gerard Nevins met us at the door, brought us all in to the kitchen to show us his firehouse, he could not of been more welcoming, a very nice man. Offered us coffee, met Capt. Hatten and Al Bengiman, bought a shirt for my buddy and left. I always wish i bought one for myself
Funny thing is, Delta has sent guys to Rescue 1 in order to train them on how to operate safely in a burning structure and to team them about forcible entry.
Fun Fact: @ 1:39, you can see a piece of a black iron fence on the wall. There is also a picture on the wall in that same room of R1 members assisting the victim with the fence still lodged in their chest in the 70's or 80's. A very small but cool piece of their history and even cooler that they saved the guy according to the current members I talked to. Great video as well, this company is truly "Outstanding".
Thats so awesome you noticed that, they told us that story. Just another great example on the elite performance of these amazing men and women, thank you for taking the time to watch.
@@davidlionheart777 I couldn’t agree more, I have so much respect for all first responders but especially those who put themselves in the most intense and dangerous situations like R1. Again, great job on the video, I loved the way you explained who Rescue 1 is to those who don’t know without dumbing it down.
Proud to have Hash as a friend,The Cheufur of R1 Retired and Artist of the firehouse... Also Author of many books . RIP those STILL RIDING BOX 8087..... TILLIE your Dad Gary Geidel lives on xx.
Sadly the uk doesn’t do the same , fallen colleagues are forgotten by the uk Amb / fire service , people who gave their life for the job are forgotten . I work for the Amb service and all photos of Lost colleagues. Have been thrown away by the big boss who wants every Amb station in his area the same , sad but that’s the uk Amb service ,
I am sorry for your loss my friend, we are working to keep honoring these men and women who gave it all. Thank you for watching keeping the memory going.
Would be proud to have n wear that sticker , i have Res1cue t shirt company badge n proud have both from the uk near london my cousin i no meet died sept 11 n FDNY n all of h mean alot to me know Paul , capt ruvello n Robert Gallione
The term "occasionally patriotism" is DISGUSTINGLY insulting. I'm a 5th generation New Yorker. My immigrant relatives suffered and worked hard. My Uncle escaped Tower 1 of the World Trade Center with 10 minutes to spare. He was a draftsman and 30 year Port Authority veteran who worked on the building's original design in the 1970s. He knew about the non contiguous stairwells and led 30 plus people to safety. He died a horrible death of pancreatic cancer 10 years later. And, I watched the Towers burn for three horrible months from my kitchen window. I DOUBT this filmmaker is from NY. BUT some of us have been here way before it became a overpriced Disneyland.
Good afternoon Mr. Garbato, I hope this finds you well. I want to thank you for taking the time to view the film, I would love to give you a little more background on myself and the purpose of the film, Obviously the vested history you have in the city and that of your family, I would be honored to share with you more about our story. Could we email privately? my email is playforyourfreedom@gmail.com - Your passion for NY is what we are working toward instilling in our youth and making sure they do not forget all of NY's civilian heroes as well as the public workers on that fatal day especially sacrifices from people like your family members. Obviously we mean no disrespect and I believe after we speak you will see that our intentions are focused on honoring NY and its Heroes. thank you sir. David L.
Here Here Play for Freedom, as a life long New Yorker and love for both the fire service and lacrosse Job Well Done. Every human on this earth tries to be the best that they can be, often times it takes a little help and inspiration, the Saints get theirs from Rescue 1, no better roll model. The Saints then bring that esprit de corps on the practice field, in the locker room, game day, work day, home and in their respected communities, we’re every they my be. Being an American is being a New Yorker. Job well done.
