I met Bob Galione in December 2008, he was off the job sitting at the table in Rescue 2. He was a really nice guy. "This should be fun." Rolling up to a 4 story fully-involved.  ;D

Heavy timber construction on very large old factory bldgs through out that area make for some spectacular fires. A lot of times the floors in these bldgs were soaked with combustible fluids over the years.

A long time ago my wife brought a book entitled "The Firefighter's Cookbook by John Sineno from E58/L26. A lot of great recipes. Just a flashback from this video.

1989 Vid:
FDNY -1989 Harlem Job

 

[mikeindabronx]

Great footage of B-16 (BC-Visconti,retired DC) and Chief Fellini (retired) I'm not sure if he was DC or DAC at the time.

 

[vbcapt]

One of the TMS videos 1989 or 1990 has Cassano in it as a BC

I think Fellini was a Deputy Chief in 5th Division at the time. Hard to tell, but last brother in the clip looked like Al Ronaldson R3 (RIP)
