Apply to become an FDNY EMT

The FDNY Mobile Academy visited Saturday’s block party at Engine 66/Ladder 61 in the Bronx, bringing the Fire Academy experience to the community through hands-on firefighter training and live demonstrations.

Through interactive activities and conversations with FDNY members, prospective members had the opportunity to learn about careers with the Department and experience the training, teamwork and dedication required to serve New York City. ...

We got a new look. 👀🔥

Same mission. Bigger presence.

See you out there, New York City! ...

Last week, Capt. Andrew Brown retired after 25 years of dedicated service to the people of New York City. Throughout his career, Capt. Brown proudly served in three companies: Ladder 151, Ladder 176 and Ladder 158.

Capt. Brown played an instrumental role in launching the Join FDNY Podcast. Since the first episode released on Jan. 31, 2023, he has been a cornerstone of the show’s success—helping shape its editorial direction while serving as one of its longtime hosts and sharing the stories of the men and women who make the FDNY what it is.

Since 2022, Capt. Brown has also become a familiar face across the Department, serving as the emcee for dozens of FDNY events, including Medal Day, graduations, promotion ceremonies, September 11th remembrance events, and countless others.

Through his work on the podcast and in recruitment, Capt. Brown has helped to inspire the next generation of firefighters, EMTs and paramedics to answer the call. Thank you, Capt. Brown, for your dedication, professionalism and passion for this Department. We wish you a long, happy and healthy retirement.

And as you always say: “You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.” ...
