Posted @withregram • @fdny Congratulations to the 288 FDNY Probationary Firefighters who graduated the Fire Academy today. The commitment, determination, and perseverance shown by these Probationary Firefighters over the past 18 weeks, have demonstrated that they are ready to serve as New York’s Bravest.
Posted @withregram • @fdny “All of you showed up months ago at the Fire Academy and didn’t know what to expect. You’ve come so far in that time and learned so much. You’ve been trained to fight fires and to respond to all manner of emergencies. You stand today, prepared to protect your fellow New Yorkers and honor the oath you swore when you began your training at the Academy. The oath was the beginning of a road to noble and brave work. It was the start of a career that many people dream of, but few can do. As you begin your careers, remember the work you do makes a difference in the lives of your neighbors. Respect your responsibility. Nurture your skills. Strive to continue learning. Learn from successes and failures. You will wake up in the blink of an eye and this day will long be in your rearview, and your career will have flown by when that day comes, you will look back on this moment, and realize it was the beginning of a great and rewarding career, that is as challenging as it is fun,” said Fire Commissioner Laura Kavanagh at today’s graduation for 288 #FDNY Probationary Firefighters.
Chief of Department John Hodgens said, “You should all be incredibly proud of everything you’ve done to arrive at this moment. This work is never easy – in fact, it is not supposed to be. But it is incredibly rewarding, and I know you will soon find exactly how rewarding.”

Probationary #Firefighter Danny Lee will also make history today when he graduates from the Fire Academy because he’s joining his brother, #Engine250 Firefighter David Lee, on the job. The two are the second Asian siblings to work in our fire suppression.
“My brother led the charge for me to make this career change. I admired how much he enjoys his career here and wanted that same fulfillment in my life,” Lee added. “I am proud to follow in my brother’s footsteps and hope that we can continue to make our family proud throughout our time here.”
Posted @withregram • @fdny Today, 288 FDNY Probationary Firefighters will graduate the Fire Academy after 18 weeks of academically and physically demanding training. The skills they have learned and knowledge they have acquired will help them best serve New Yorkers as New York’s Bravest for many years to come.
Posted @withregram • @fdny #FDNY Probationary EMTs participate in a Spirit Run before graduation. This tradition takes place at the end of every Probationary EMT Academy, and is meant to build camaraderie and motivate the EMTs before the conclusion of their 16 week training.
Posted @withregram • @fdny Today, FDNY Probationary EMTs from the EMS Academy took part in a wreath-laying ceremony at the 9/11 Memorial, followed by a visit to the @911memorial and Museum. Soon to retire, Chief of Staff Elizabeth Cascio spoke about the resilience of #FDNY members that day and detailed her personal account of the EMS response. We will Never Forget the Supreme Sacrifice made by the 343 FDNY members.
