Lt. Dan Kennedy sent in this photo of Merrionette Park FD which is a POC/VOL department. The crews vary by call. For the last couple fires this has been the crew to have. From left to right Probie Ruane, Engineer Hornung, Engineer Gauracio and myself Lieutenant Kennedy. I know why Kennedy is the Lt….he is the only one with a name everyone can pronounce. The shame is that the Lt. thinks he got it on merit alone!
