In the evening hours
on September 9 as crews were doing house work, a group of Mount Vernon Fire
Department, New York firefighters arrived for the PennState vs Alabama game.
The guys that arrived didn’t take long to get acquainted as they began to cook
a delicious meal to serve about 25 that were in station that night. The
firefighters stayed at the Alpha Fire Stations over the course of weekend. On
Saturday the Alpha’s were greeted by members of Squad 252 and Rescue 4, FDNY,
who were on the front lines on September 11, 2001. The FDNY members were the
Honor Guard at the game. The firefighters of FDNY stayed until the early
morning hours of Sunday. On behalf of the Alpha’s we hope you all enjoyed your
time and appreciate the visit. Please see the link below that features FDNY at
PennState.
