Today, the UFA joined in honoring the 12 FDNY Firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice at the 23rd Street Fire on this day in 1966.
This remains the 2nd largest loss of FDNY members after 9/11.
Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
We Will Never Forget.

What is the first thing you should consider for preventing fires?
Battalion Chief Doug Reynolds advises the top safety tip is to install at least one smoke detector on each floor of a home, and to check them regularly to ensure that they are working.

Heavy rain and strong winds are expected to affect Puerto Rico & the U.S. Virgin Islands this week due to multiple storms moving north in the Atlantic. These storms have the potential to grow into larger hazards, so pay close attention to any alerts issued by local officials.

They can bring heavy rain, which can lead to deadly flooding. Remain vigilant if a Tropical Storm Watch or Warning is issued for your area. Never walk or drive into floodwaters. It only takes 6 inches to know you over and only 12 inches to sweep a car away. Weather.gov."
