Please see General Order No. 22; series of 2024 below re Commendations and Unit Citations for life-saving actions to save a 5-year old near-drowning victim at the McCrehan Swimming Pool on Rindge Avenue in North Cambridge.

Thank you to the members of Engine 4, Ladder 4, Squad 4, Rescue 1, & Division 2 (group 1 on duty).

Excellent teamwork by all with a great outcome!
