Some Pictures of our Ladder 101 truck:

On September 11, 2001 both Engine 202 and Ladder 101 responded to the call at the WTC. The seven men from Ladder 101 never returned. Both the engine and ladder trucks were destroyed.

Upon hearing of the losses suffered by this firehouse, students of the White Knoll Middle School of Columbia, South Carolina raised more than $500,000 to buy new trucks for this firehouse. This is the truck their money paid for. This truck is dedicated to the White Knoll students and the Red Hook firefighters who died at the WTC.

On June 1, 2002, the leaders of the Columbia, South Carolina Ladder 101 Firetruck fundraising drive traveled to Red Hook and dedicated the new truck.
