FDNY Foundation Congratulates 75 FDNY Fire Officers on their Promotions

On Tuesday, July 23, the FDNY Foundation joined the FDNY for a promotion ceremony for 75 FDNY Fire Officers on Staten Island. Those being promoted include: Deputy Chiefs, Captains, Lieutenants, Marine Pilot, and Marine Wipers. They will be assigned to units throughout the City.

The FDNY Foundation congratulates all 75 members on their promotions! This is a tremendous accomplishment for them and their families. We wish them continued success and thank them for their service and commitment to protecting the people and City of New York and proudly representing the FDNY.

“Today, we celebrate your hard-earned accomplishments, which I know took endless hours of reading and studying. Promotion is a time for us to reflect on leadership. We expect all of you to be leaders on the fireground, in the firehouse, and in the communities we serve,” said First Deputy Commissioner Joseph Pfeifer.

“Together, this group comprises more than 1,000 years of experience in the FDNY. That experience will help to inform each of you in your new roles. Whether it’s commanding operations on the fireground, commanding fire companies, or working to keep our Fire Boats in service, each job is a part of the bigger picture as we work towards one mission– protecting the people of New York and our fellow members,” said Acting Chief of Department John Esposito.
