Next assignment, deliver gifts to Ladder
18 Engine 15 from TroopShirts Christmas 2005 and look for Harry
Antonopoulos, my contact at Ladder 18 who made this all happen in
2005. |
Outside Ladder 18 Engine
15 the first firefighter we met, Dan Ligarzekski had actually served
at the same base as Kevin at the same time. They may have passed
each other in the Chow Hall. Again, the family connnection between
the FDNY and the troops just keep getting more and more obvious.

Ladder 18 returned to the house, Engine 15 was still out at a ceremony.
It was a busy day at 15/18, the President had been there in the
morning for breakfast. Still, nothing beats news from our brothers
and sisters in the service. |
It was completely unintentional on my part to reach the firefighting
unit in Iraq, but there they are again in 2005. I guess I should
stop pointing out the connection, its just so obvious. |
Before the Fort Pitt (Ladder
18 Engine 15) t shits... |

I think that's Roberta Smith, my contact for 2005, an Air Force
Medic handing out the shirts |
