Firemen Are Racists???

The next time you hear someone say, "Firemen are racists!" show them
these two photos and tell them I said to blow it out THEIR racist asses!!

Whatever a fireman's political or racial beliefs might be, they have abs-
olutely no bearing when those bells go down, and life and property are
in danger. The oath they swore to serve and protect comes above ALL
else!

Newark, NJ
Fireman John Friary, of Engine 20, hands an unconscious child to Fireman Tom Gervel.
of Truck 3, on a fire escape after the child was rescued from a fire at an unknown loca-
tion. Retired Firemen Jerry Knight recalls, "The fire was in the late '60s. It was at either
South Orange and Jones, or Springfield and Jones. 20 Engine was first-due, and 3 Truck
was the first-due truck. I was raising the aerial to the roof and my tillerman, Tom Gervel,
went to the ladder of the fire escape to take the kid. A tip o' the ol' NFH high-eagle lea-
ther to Jerry for sharing his memories with us.
