  • QUEST for PITTSBURGH FIRE DEPARTMENT HISTORY James Waldo Fawcett
    QUEST FOR PITTSBURGH FIRE DEPARTMENT HISTORY James Waldo Fawcett proper history of the Pittsburgh fire department exists, and it is possible that none ever can be produced. The materials Noare missing. Fires, floods and human carelessness have destroyed them. Now and again the need for such a book is expressed by a public official or an antiquarian scholar interested only in the philosophical aspects of the theme. In recent years it has been suggested several times that a fire department history be written by a person familiar with the subject from having, like Shakespeare's dyer, worked in it. The difficulty involved, however, soon was realized to be, in effect, insuperable. It simply is not feasible to make an authentic, truly useful history out of non-existent data. But some primary documents still survive and are available. In 1945 The Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania staged an ex- hibition of relics of the big Pittsburgh fire of April 10, 1845. It ob- served the centennial anniversary of that conflagration not only by displaying souvenirs of the disaster but also by publishing a 40-page pamphlet of carefully garnered facts about it,including a comprehen- sive list of descendants of citizens whose properties were destroyed. Most important, though, was evidence brought together in this booklet to indicate that the 1845 holocaust was of a sudden incidence and of a devastating violence so dynamic that no firefighting organiza- tioncould be effective against it. The story of the disaster that reduced to ashes nearly one thousand buildings and their contents is not an account of what resistance there was to the firebut rather an admission of the sober truth that the flames raged unchecked for seven hours.

  • 1 Month of October in the City of Samarra by Themselves. They 2 Had the Most Contacts of Any Platoon in the Entire Battalion 3 and They Suffered No Casualties
    1 month of October in the city of Samarra by themselves. They 2 had the most contacts of any platoon in the entire battalion 3 and they suffered no casualties. There is no other platoon in 4 the battalion that can say that. He set up the first police 5 station in Balad and trained and monitored the Iraqis. 6 7 Balad was the geopolitical center of that region. It was 8 very unstable at the time and one of the hottest spots in Iraq. 9 Within a month we owned the city and built great relationships. 10 Subsequently, we spent a lot of money improving the 11 infrastructure. The periphery was mostly Sunni. Trying to 12 bring them into the government was difficult, but once we 13 controlled Balad and the city outlines, we controlled the 14 entire region. 15 16 Lieutenant Saville's platoon were the key to the success for 17 Alpha Company. He was put in for two bronze stars. His 18 rehabilitative potential is very high. He's very mature. He's 19 a faith-filled man, outstanding leader, outstanding officer and 20 he's earned the faith of his men. He's combat tested and he's 21 a man of integrity. I would take him anywhere, anytime. I'd 22 go to combat with him, I'.d stand by his side and I'd put my son 23 in his outfit if we were going back to war without thought. 24 25 CROSS-EXAMINATION 26 27 Questions by the trial counsel-Captain Schiffer: 28 29 The platoons were very autonomous because of the lack of 30 leadership in 1-66 Armor.

Landmarks believes that enormous benefits can be created by saving and interpreting the most significant artifacts of our steel industry heritage. As an examplg the restoration of about 100 dilapidated but historic houses in Savannah has resulted in tourist revenue of over $200 million a year, in a city not strate- gically located.

  • The One Northside Community Plan
    Strategy Guide No. 1 Sharing New Methods˙ to IMPACT Pittsburgh’s Neighborhoods innovative project report: THE ONE NORTHSIDE COMMUNITY PLAN Our mission is to support the people, organizations and partnerships committed to creating and maintaining thriving neighborhoods. We believe that Pittsburgh’s future is built upon strong neighborhoods and the good work happening on the ground. It is integral to our role as an advocate, collaborator and convener to lift up exemplary projects and share best practices in ways that advance better engagement and community-led decisions and ensure a better understanding of the processes that lead to success and positive impact on our neighborhoods. We share this story with you to inspire action and celebrate progress, and most importantly, to empower leaders and residents in other communities to actively ˙ shape the future of their neighborhoods. — Presley L. Gillespie President, Neighborhood Allies Neighborhood Strategy Guide || 1 innovative project report: From concept to consensus Upwards of 600 people braved the chill of an early December night in Pittsburgh last year to celebrate in the warmth inside Heinz Field, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Their reason for celebration had nothing to do with the exploits of the city’s beloved professional football team. A community plan was being unveiled for improving the quality of life in the city’s Northside neighborhoods around the stadium that the voices of several thousand residents and community stakeholders had shaped. And hopes were high that improvements in infrastructure, schools, employment and lives would be more broadly and quickly realized, as they had in other city neighborhoods where resources and revitalization were attracting investment and people.
