New York City Fireboats at Work at a multiple alarm fire that occurred early in the 1930s at the Cunard Lines passenger ship terminal and south piers on the west side of Manhattan.
Really Great story, didn't know that they've called this boat at 9/11 as well. Outstanding performance, I think it tells a lot about our times when you consider that they have to call a veteran ship to help out with an actual incident..
I always know when a Zaffdoc video comes out that I will be amazed, You and Ken Burns I always know I am going to get something great to watch. Thank You for your efforts and creativity.
