About Me:

Requests:

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

Reading, writing, art, music, cooking,movies. I enjoy swimming in the summer and getting to know everyone. I love reading about the 1920's to the 1940's and anything WW1-WW2 related. I live in an old house from the 1920's and it has lots of history as well as some old fixtures from the 30's and 40's.I also love reading about "homefront stories" from the American and British point of view. It is very interesting hearing about small town life and rationing in the UK and the USA.I guess you can say that I love history. I am a published writer and you can check out my writing at www.publishamerica.com and you can look up my books titled:
"LONELY IN THE WIDE OPEN"
"LOUD SILENCES IN OPEN SPACES"

I have lived in a few haunted houses including the one I am currently living in. I do believe that the dearly departed are among us......

NYC FDNY ORDER OF RANK:
Lieutenant: silver bar on collar and 1 silver 1/4 stripe
Captain: insignia same as a U.S Army Captain in silver and 2 1/4 stripes
Battalion Chief: Same as a U.S Army Major and a 1/4 gold stripe
Deputy Chief: Same as a U.S Colonel but in Gold and 1 gold 1/2 stripe
Deputy Assistant Chief: 2 gold stars and 2 gold stripes
Assistant Chief: 3 gold stars and 3 gold stripes
Chief of Operations: 4 Gold stars and 4 gold stripes
Chief of Department: same as U.S. General of the Army but in gold and 5 gold stripes.

The left side is in collars while the right side for black dress uniform sleeve

There is actually a one-star rank in the FDNY; it's titled Division Commander, and there are only a handful of them in the department. The city is broken down into eight divisions, and each division is headed by a one-star Commander. I'm not sure what the sleeve insignia would be, but I'm guessing one gold stripe.

Division 1: Manhattan
Division 2: Manhattan
Division 3: Manhattan/Bronx
Division 4: Manhattan/Bronx
Division 5: Queens
Division 6: Brooklyn
Division 7: Brooklyn/Queens
Division 8: Staten Island/Brooklyn

Quote:
Firefighter: silver pin that shows their assignment on each side of the collar.
Example: 'L123' for Ladder 123, 'E234' for Engine 234, etc.
