Would you mind taking a look at my 9/11 picture album to see if you or your collegues might recognise any of the fire fighters I photographed at Ground Zero back in 01 when i was working for the New York Post. I am heading to New York in July and would like to make contact with them. Any help with contact details would be greatly appreciated

Cheers mate. Nathan Edwards, Australia email contact:edwardsn@dailytelegrpah.com.au

At 5:33pm on August 30, 2009,Jim Millersaid…: Chief Tracy,
Where can i get something in writing about the recommended flow rate for today's fires being at least 150gpm? This is for justification reasons, so it needs to be a non-bias type document. If you can help let me know.

Thanks and BE SAFE!!
Jim
