Thank you for the recognition. But before we go too far...let me post my job's website
http://www.nybfu.org click skip intro and click FIRE PATROL. Quick note...despite *not* being part of the FDNY...we *were* at the WTC that morning too...as well as several days afterward. When it became obvious that there was no salvage duty to perform...the Patrol's role turned to that of evacuation of the buildings. During this time we lost one member.
Editors note: When units of the Fire Patrol were no longer working at the site...I volunteered at Nino's
http://www.ninos911.org where I spent six months..prepping in the kitchen, transporting food to the three or four locations near the site..but mainly running the Buffet Line during my average 24 hours a week. Some of you may have heard of the place...we stayed open 24/7 from 12 September to I believe the second week of February, when the hours were reduced in preparation to close on 12 February. After that time food was cooked and transported to three and then four locations near the site.
As for inhouse food...can be as simple as BBQ
hot dogs and
burgers, to pan fried stuffed
pork chops with all the trimmings (fried spiced apples, garlic mashed potatos, german style sauerkraut or potato salad in lieu of the mashed), could be Fusili with Bolognese, roast turkey breast, cheeststeak heros, Im planning to do some classic (as if there really might be such a thing) Reubens. I try to keep the largest number of folks happy with whatever Im planning to put on the table that night. I was the guy that introduced my original group to strawberries in Balsamic. I cant remember how many bread puddings Ive knocked out over the almost six years.
So, as you can see, it all depends :chef:
