The Officers and Firefighters on Watkins Street want to congratulate Lt. Taylor Searing (E231) on his promotion to Captain. He was an outstanding fire officer who’s passion for firefighting and the traditions of the job was contagious. During drills he broke everything down so even the newest proby knew exactly what was expected of him at complex operations, he was always up for a discussion on buildings or tactics, and leading by example he lifted morale on busy nights. Captain Searing was assigned to E227 out of proby school and transferred to Ladder 108 (pronounced hundred and eight). Captain Searing is currently assigned to the 13th Division in southern Queens. He is an outstanding leader and will be a great addition to any firehouse.
