I personally responded to the job, while I wasn't inside with them I did observe them at work and I saw nothing but professional good hard work, show a little respect for the hardworking good VOLUNTEERS who don't get an ounce of pay yet put their lives at risk to help and save others

And an extra note-the FDNY and the volunteers worked hand in hand with no problems, mutual respect on both sides

Most of this great country is protected for volunteer fire departments. Some great and some not so great. I have over 40 years in the fire service from volunteer to paid on call to paid, I have seen the good bad and ugly of the fire service but I can tell you this, when the alarm bell rings Joe Q Public really don't give a rats ass who shows up as long as they bring help to the situation at hand. If you are in the fire service challenge yourself to be the best firefighting professional available and pay it forward.

Gerritsen Beach is a tight-packed, & tight-knit Community. If/When a Fire breaks-out and Eng.321,309,
TL159 are on another Run, (as occurs as much as not ); That neighborhood of tight-packed structures is in Imminent Danger,(as the quick
extension of This Job illustrates, when 321,309, 254, 159, 153 were In-Service/Available).

Gerritsen Beach Neighbors wholeheartedly Support & Participate w/ GBVFD

GBVFD often Co-Operates w/FDNY in Gerritsen Beach.

If I'm not mistaken, there are more than a couple of FDNY members who live in Gerritsen Beach who are also Volley's with GBFD. And it's a 2-way relationship that GBFD has with FDNY. On more than one occasion GBFD has responded on mutual aid calls to other parts of Brooklyn and indeed the entire city. Examples are last month when GBFD provided one of its 2 ambulances to respond as needed citywide to augment FDNY's July 4 effort, and on Sep 17, 2018 when they were called on the ticket to respond on the 4th alarm to what ended up as a 7-alarm fire in the Kings Plaza parking garage (https://nycfire.net/forums/threads/9-17-18-brooklyn-7th-alarm-box-3073.54218/). Also, whenever there's a brush fire in their neighborhood, you can bet they'll be there with their engine and ATV. So FDNY definitely does NOT consider them to be less than full-fledged firefighters and EMTs.
