emergency service division
25 years later
August 13, 1950
The Emergency Service Division was created in 1925 in response to the increasing number of emergencies in our growing city. From jewelry lost in a drain to a poor soul trapped underneath a train, and everything in between . . . and then some! The Division consisted of land: Emergency Service; Sea: Harbor and air: Aviation. This is an article from August 13, 1950 that tells some of the stories from the previous quarter century. Seventy plus years later the stories still amaze.
