13 children of firefighters who died in 9/11 graduate from FDNY training academy

The newest class of New York City firefighters includes a group following tracks laid by their parents 18 years ago.

Of the 301 probationary firefighters who graduated Tuesday from the New York City Fire Department training academy, 13 are children of firefighters who died at the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. Six are sons of firefighters or police officers who died of 9/11-related illnesses. "They are honoring their fallen loved ones," Fire Commissioner Dan Nigro said."They are continuing their family’s legacy of service and they are making all of us immensely proud.""These legacies are no longer children dreaming of the careers their fathers loved and of serving in the world’s greatest fire department," Nigro said."Today, they fully achieved their dreams.

Wow. Amazing courage and dedication to serving others.

Police, firefighters and all city jobs run via nepotism which is comparable to inbreeding! Greatly reduced standards are applied and if you think not, have a 105lb female lift a 220lb man up and down a 25’ ladder! Just like the 2 women Rangers! An insult!

Awesome 👏

Awesome! Blessings to them all ❤️🙌🏾❤️

Wow! What an amazing story
