FDNY Firefighter Killed Battling Brooklyn Blaze

Editors' Note: I'm trying to find the proper balance of humor and sentiment for the blog. Unfortunately there has been a lot of terrible news lately that I can't seem to find the balance right now.

FDNY Firefighter Killed Battling Brooklyn Blaze - Firehouse.com In The Line Of Duty:

"The FDNY is mourning the loss of one of its own. A firefighter with just 20 months on the job, slipped on a ladder and fell to his death. Eyewitness News reporter Patricia Wu is live outside Ladder Company 146 in Greenpoint with the latest.

Daniel Pujdak died doing a job he loved to do. His mother said he love being a firefighter because he love to help people.
The fire scene remained lit into the night. Fire Marshalls, working to learn exactly what killed a fellow firefighter.

Meanwhile the men of Ladder Company 146 didn't want to talk. Outside their fire house in Greenpoint, their truck sat unmanned. Their flag, lowered to half mast.

Daniel Pujdak of Fresh Meadows was just 23. He had been a New York City firefighter for two years.

'While he was climbing down...he fell from the parapet and died from his injuries,' Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta said."
