My first Lt. with the City FD, "Gino".
He'd been OTJ longer than I'd been alive, and seemed to have a 6th sense about fire. He'd inspected a buynch of the buildings and knew damn near everybody in town.
He had some stuff in his personal life that he wasn't too proud of but he treated his troops well, and that's very different than the "leadership model" the City has today.
He died last year after a "routine procedure".
See ya at the club* Ell-Tee.
* "The club" was a late-night creation of one of the old school Red Shift guys, who once stated that were were all too perverted to make it into heaven, but hell didn't want us to get in there and put it out, so the Arch-angels and Arch demons established "the club", which is similar to Valhalla - fight fires and each other all day, party all night, but most importantly we get hidden out of sight so we don't cause any trouble in the afterlife.
While completely corrupt from a strict conventional theological viewpoint, it was a humor point for many years.
