Was he ever in a SOC company?
 
He was a LT in LAD*136 & began his SOC schooling there ( as they were a Soc Support Ladder ) & continued with his Certification's afterward...... as a LT in 136 in my presence at many operations he certainly proved himself as a capable Fire Officer & Leader..... he is one of the most diligent Members OTJ & a credit to the FDNY Staff lineup.
