Best gift is having Anthony home- but the t shirt rocks too!

Incredibly, it turns out that in this unit in Iraq are two FDNY firefighters, one comes from the same FDNY house as a new transfer to Ladder 20.
PDRM0934
We ambushed the new transfer at Ladder 20 with a letter from his FDNY chum who has just received his Ladder 20 t shirt in Iraq.
PDRM0935
More happy faces holding pictures of happy faces. All these people deserve something to smile about, and now they have each other.

By way of celebration my Ladder 20 t shirt is stripped off to reveal the Fleet Hospital Three t shirt from 2003.

George and the firefighters at Ladder 20 and all of the FDNY are ecstatic that these troops really got their message.

If you ever have any doubt about who supports you and remembers your sacrifices, know well that you are the heroes of heroes- forever.

The men (and "20" the fire dog) of Ladder 20 support the troops and thank you VERY much for everything including these amazing photos.

April 15, 2004 visit from the U.S.S. Seattle. They gave Ladder 20 this flag, Ladder 20 gave them... t shirts!

More info coming.
And so you see now that we will be here sending shirts and support to the troops as long as they are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan to keep us safe, knowing that by drawing the fire over there they are saving lives over here.
There are no words to say how grateful we are.
