BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS
The life of a Staff Assistant is certainly not easy. In addition to all of their administrative duties they are subject to the same dangerous emergency conditions that the members on the front lines face on a daily basis.
S/A Dan Curry from Battalion 14 "C" Platoon normally can rely on the watchful eye of Battalion Chief Pat Shanley to keep him out of harms way on the fireground. This was not the case on Friday when Dan was working with the "B" shift B/C Evan Williams.
Without PMS to protect him the shields were down and Dan was on his own at the fire on Kittridge. As the picture shows Dan took one for the team during cause investigation and literally worked until his fingers were bleeding. Just for the record, Dan will probably try to tell you it was something else but the truth is.... THIS IS JUST A PAPER CUT!
