As a young Fireman in Ladder Company 59, the Blue Devils, we had 3 DC?s,  Vinny Dunn, Tom Moran and Harry. After the South BX fire devastation, the fire duty went north and the 7th was the busiest place to be. Harry was a Great Chief and was respectful of all the companies as we were to him.

Regarding post 1169, Capt. Collis was a fireman in 225 in the mid-80's. I grew up with his nephew. One hot summer night around 1985 he invited his nephew and myself to come and ride for a 6x9. It is a night I'll never forget. RIP Capt Collis and thanks for making a young kids dreams come true for a night.

Capt. Collis was well known to many for his study aids.  He created outlines or breakdowns of the "books".  Helped quite a few guys get promoted.
