The scanner slipped. Its not Italic. Look at the left edge of the PSA holder (across from caption) you will see the whole scan slipped.

Is there a particular order, or does it all go at once?
I can't remember. ....

Thanks.

hey Joe, since 1968, E-16 and TL-7 are housed at 234 E. 29th St. (Corner of E29th and 3rd ave)... Originally located a few blocks down on E25th, that House was opened during the Civil War. Thanks for asking. I'm not a NYC firefighter, but one from Mass that worked the WTC with survivors of that House during 9/11. Actual shot of L7 with six members, circa late 1800's. Man, that lieutenant had some balance, I woulda been on my ass!

Thanks for the information, I know where it is.
Thanks for the great shot, I printed it.
But above all.
Thanks for coming to the aid of New Yorkers when they needed it the most.
Folks like you will never be forgotten.
For whatever it means, you're an Honorary New Yorker.
A Brooklyn Dodger fan woulda probably said it best:
"You's one of us." ....

Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
