Summary

Be sure and join us Live on our Youtube Channel this Thursday December 18th with our special guest, FDNY Veteran, Jack Carney. Jack joined the FDNY in March of 1965 and was assigned to Engine 7 out of Probie school. From there he went to Engine 219 in late 1965, then in 1966 he went to Engine 283. The following year he went to Squad 4 where he was "allegedly" lifted. In 1970 he did some time in Truck 111 and in 1971, was detailed, then transferred to Rescue 2. In 1977 he was assigned to Rescue 4. Assigned BFI in 1978, and retired in 1988. After his retirement he continued to investigate fires and is currently a Peer Counselor with FDNY's counseling unit. We are sure he hasn't seen any fires and probably doesn't have any real good stories to share. We will get the whole skinny on Jack's career. You don’t want to miss this one. Join us at the kitchen table on the BEST FIREFIGHTER PODCAST ON THE INTERNET!
