Recognize Fireman?

[edit]

Should any of the firefighters (they were all men) be recognized? Of particular note is F. Furman Anderson, whose ladder truck company was credited with saving 46 people, and whose health was failing after this fire (he was about 63 when the fire happened). He died a few years later, 16 Feb 1949. An article at the time of his death gave him much credit.[1]
