William Cesark became the Captain of Ladder 132 during 1973 and brought some...
Rest in Peace for the Brother who was lost. Comfort, thoughts and prayers for those who were injured and those who responded to and operated at this job.
In Brooklyn during the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s I always heard the aerial referred to as “the aerial” or “the ladder” (I still do to this day). It wasn’t until I moved to Texas in the early 90’s that I heard the aerial called “the stick”. That was new (and alien) to me.
