New York State Honorary Fire Chiefs
Association Medal::
Battalion Chief
James Marketti: Ironically, many
fires that start during the early hours do
not become visible or detected until people
begin to go about their normal routines.
This was the case on February 14th,
Valentine’s Day, 2002. The Brooklyn
dispatcher received the call for a fire at
455 East 26th Street. This neighborhood is
known for its tree-lined streets and old,
stately dwellings--known as “Queen Annes”--in
which a fire can spread quite rapidly. Box
3742 was transmitted immediately.
