LOUIS J. NICOLOSI FF. LAD. 125 APR. 1, 2013 2014 HOLY NAME SOCIETY MEDAL
Holy Name Society Medal
(Brooklyn/Queens)
FIREFIGHTER LOUIS J. NICOLOSI
LADDER COMPANY 125
April 1, 2013, 0149 hours, Box 75-9722, Queens
The outside vent Firefighter (OVFF) position usually is assigned to the most experienced Firefighter who has knowledge of the many complexities of the position. The OVFF is expected to make a quick decision, based on his or hersituational awareness, on whether to be patient and wait for the engine company to advance on the fire before ventilating or to be aggressive due to a life hazard and vent, enter and search immediately. When the fire is in a private dwelling, the challenge can be intensified if all actions have to be performed from a portable ladder.
FF Louis Nicolosi was assigned as the OVFF in Ladder 125 for the 6 by 9 tour, starting on March 31, 2013. With 20 years of experience at Ladder 125, FF Nicolosi was fully aware of the demands of the OV position and the importance of his actions. At approximately 0200 hours on the morning of April 1, 2013, FF Nicolosi and the members of Ladders 125 and 152 faced significant challenges.
Ladder 125 was assigned second-due for a report of a structural fire in a private dwelling in the borough of Queens. While en route, the Queens fire alarm dispatcher reported that several civilians were Reported trapped by fire at the location. FF Nicolosi and the outside team prepared to execute the complex tactics of search and rescue via portable ladder in the rear of this private dwelling.
On arrival, the units were met with visible fire on the second floor with numerous panicked civilians. FFs Nicolosi and Noel Curry, Ladder 125 roof Firefighter, focused on the known life hazard and removed a
24-foot extension ladder. Their first hazard was a locked, six foot-high fence that had to be forced. Upon completion, they rushed to the rear and determined that the most severely exposed civilian was in a second-story corner bedroom on the left rear part of the house. While positioning the ladder, FF Nicolosi communicated to his Officer and the initial Incident Commander, Battalion Chief Eugene Marmann, Battalion 52, that numerous civilians required rescue in the rear and additional assistance was required.
FF Nicolosi ascended the portable ladder and performed the arduous task of entering a hostile fire room from the ladder. Without hesitation, knowing he was placing himself in a perilous situation, he entered the room and rescued a young boy. He removed the youngster to the ladder tip and transferred him to FF Curry.
FF Nicolosi returned to the room--which now had fully deteriorated to high heat and zero visibility--and discovered three additional victims on the floor. After transferring the young boy to EMS personnel, FF Curry joined FF Nicolosi and removed another young victim, a female, and transferred her to Ladder 125 chauffeur, FF Patrick Lavin, on the portable ladder.
FF Nicolosi now faced the task of removing an unconscious adult male via the portable ladder, a very dangerous tactic for both victim and rescuer. At this point, Engine 299 started to make progress attacking the fire. Thus, FF Nicolosi determined that with the slightly improved conditions, he could remove this third victim via the interior. The fourth victim was removed by Captain Robert Reinhardt and FF Richard Kuntzler, Ladder 152. FF Curry assisted FF Nicolosi in the removal of the final victim to EMS personnel outside the fire building. With the conclusion of the rescue operation at this fire, 10 civilians--four of them in critical condition—were removed or rescued by FDNY members.
FF Nicolosi directly participated in the successful rescue of four civilians from a second floor bedroom of a significant framed private dwelling fire. He rescued two of the civilians himself; one using a portable ladder. If not for the actions of FF Nicolosi and the Ladder 125 outside team, all four victims probably would have lost their lives. Due to his brave actions in the finest traditions of the FDNY, FF Louis J. Nicolosi is awarded the Holy Name Society Medal (Brooklyn/Queens).

FIREFIGHTER EDWARD B. RAMILO
LADDER COMPANY 125
October 18, 2009, 0316 hours, Box 22-4909, 156-07 71st Avenue, Queens
Queens Box 4909 was transmitted for a structural fire on the fifth floor at 153-03 71st Avenue, with Ladder 125 assigned as the first-due truck on October 18, 2009, at 0311 hours. At 0316 hours, Ladder 125 arrived at the reported address, a seven-story, 100- by 100-foot, fireproof, occupied multiple dwelling. The inside team of Lieutenant Joseph Fernicola and FFs Edward B. Ramilo, with the irons, and a detail from Engine 298, Leo Nishimori, with the extinguisher, made their way to the fifth floor. They found no conditions indicating a fire.
This information was transmitted to Battalion Chief Paul Tauber, Battalion 50, and a 10-7 (verify address/location) was requested. As soon as Lieutenant Fernicola finished his transmission, he received an urgent message from his chauffeur, FF Pete Grandazza. While en route to his position, the chauffeur discovered a fire on the fifth floor of a similar attached building. Lieutenant Fernicola and the forcible entry team quickly made their way to the fifth floor of the fire building. The correct address turned out to be 156-07 71st Avenue. The fire was in apartment 5A. The building is part of the Pomonok Houses Housing project. The Lieutenant and FFs Ramilo and Nishimori arrived at the fire apartment just as FF Peter Grandazza and the outside vent Firefighter from Ladder 152 were removing two victims from the fire apartment after forcing the door.
Lieutenant Fernicola and the inside team entered the fire apartment where they encountered a heavy smoke and high heat condition and zero visibility, due to the fire extending from the living room into the hallway. The fire was being drawn across the apartment hallway by an open window onthe other side of the apartment. The Officer ordered FF Nishimori to use the extinguisher to hold back the fire so that he and FF Ramilo could search for additional occupants.
Soon after beginning his search, Lieutenant Fernicola found a third unconscious victim in the dining area, which was across the hallway from the living room. He transmitted a 10-45 and began to remove the victim. FF Ramilo continued his search down the hallway and crawled past the fire, furniture and other debris in the hallway. At the end of the apartment, he found a bedroom with a locked door, which meant that it was likely someone was inside.
At this time, FF Nishimori informed Lieutenant Fernicola and FF Ramilo that the extinguisher was almost empty. A charged hose-line was not yet in position to protect the inside team of Ladder 125 and the heat condition at the end of the apartment was increasing. Engine 315 members were stretching a 1 3/4-inch hose-line. Nevertheless, using his Halligan tool, FF Ramilo proceeded to force the door to the bedroom and encountered clothing, shoe boxes and other debris behind the door and in the bedroom.
After moving the debris, FF Ramilo located a fourth unconscious person, who was covered by some of the contents in the bedroom. He transmitted a 10-45 and began to remove Jinosv Goczkowsyki by dragging him by his belt. FF Ramilo knew that in order to remove the victim, he would have to pass the furniture and other obstacles in the hallway.
As FF Ramilo was removing Mr. Goczkowsyki, he got caught on something and some of the debris in the hallway fell on the pair. FF Nishimori heard FF Ramilo’s 10-45 transmission and he met up with him to guide him and the victim out of the apartment and to the safety of the public hallway. The victim suffered second- and third-degree burns to his arms and face.
After the victim was removed to the public hallway, FF Ramilo returned to the fire apartment to complete his primary search. He searched the second bedroom, opposite where he located the victim, and the results were negative. For acting alone and without benefit of a protecting hoseline and passing the fire to reach the victim, FF Edward B. Ramilo is officially recognized by the FDNY with the Thomas E. Crimmins Medal.
