Enhanced Engine 41 or later referred to as Squad 41 was the place you wanted to be if you wanted to fight fires.
Covering the Bronx, Harlem, and Washington Heights, those 41 guys certainly caught their share of work, PLUS the pin jobs, water rescues, etc.
I sure was a lucky guy just to be a buff at the time and see them operate.
I had a few buff buddies that usually joined me.
One of them we used to call "Little Mikey"
He later became an FDNY member working in the busy Ladder 11 in the Lower East Side, then went on become a member of Squad 41.
After that he went to Rescue 3.
Maybe you remember him, Mike L.
These days Mike L., is still very active in the fire service here in Ct.
