Our Mission
The
bravest are surely those
Who know what lies before them:
Glory and danger alike,
Yet,
notwithstanding
Go out and meet it.
Thucidides
We are merely passing through;
We are the guardians and custodians of a noble profession.
Commissioner William Feehan, F.D.N.Y.
We will prevent harm;
We will survive
We will be nice.
