GETTIN SALTY EXPERIENCE PODCAST Ep. 100 | FDNY CHIEF OF DEPT. THOMAS J. RICHARDSON

Описание: Our special guest will be 41 year FDNY veteran Chief of Department Tom Richardson. Chief Richardson joined the FDNY in 1980. His first assignment was at Engine Company 227 in Brooklyn, and he later worked at Ladder Company 102 and Rescue Company 2, also in Brooklyn. In 1990, he was promoted to Lieutenant and worked in Battalion 16 in Harlem for a year before returning to Brooklyn when he was assigned to Engine Company 235 in Bedford Stuyvesant. He was promoted again in 1994 and served as the Captain of Engine Company 234 in Crown Heights and later of Squad Company 270 in Queens. In September of 2000, he was promoted to Battalion Chief.
He has been cited for bravery six times in his career, including for the rescue of a 15-year-old boy from a fire in Brooklyn on January 10, 1989. At that incident, Firefighter Richardson was lowered by his lifesaving rope from the roof of a three-story brownstone on Monroe Street and rescued the teenager who was trapped by a fire. He was awarded the Dr. Albert A. Cinelli Medal for his heroic actions. The last response of his career was among the most tragic, Chief of Department Richardson responded Sunday, January 9, 2022, to a five-alarm high-rise fire in the Bronx that left 17 people dead, including eight children, with numerous other victims badly injured.
