FDNY Operational Reference 10th Edition Just Published

[x635 4,066]

The 10th Edition of the FDNY Operational Reference has been published. I just got my copy, and like previous editions, is packed with basically everything you need to know about FDNY. The comprehensive information is extremly detailed and very in-depth, and covers just about every aspect of FDNY's operations. In fact, it is also even distributed to FDNY members for study and reference.

The book also features photos from our own Joe Pinto.
