Hose Company One - Baldwin FD

Hose Company One - Baldwin FD Over 100 years of dedicated service to our community Since that date, over 150 Baldwinites have appeared on the Company's membership rolls.

Hose Company No. 1 came into being on March 5, 1896, although the Baldwin Fire Department was organized a couple of months earlier. Hose Company No. 1 has always played an active part in the activities of the Baldwin Fire Department. In 1915, it purchased the first motorized hose cart in the Department. In 1921, the Company became the proud owner of one of the fastest REO "Speedwagon" Hose Trucks

in this part of the state. In 1951, the Baldwin Fire District purchased the 1000–gallon Ahrens Fox Pumper that is still in the possession of the Hose Company, and which has done valiant and yeomanly service not only in fighting fires in Baldwin, but also in Long Beach, Oceanside, and Freeport. During the long and glorious history of the department, in state and country firematic parades and tournaments, Hose Company No. 1 has played a noble part, evidenced by the number of trophies and cups decorating the cabinets of its meeting room. With the advent of the REO truck, the Company toured up and down Long Island winning prizes from Riverhead to Long Beach, and in 1922 was the State Champion in both motor hose and chemical contests for standard fire apparatus, winning those titles at the State Jamboree in Freeport. The present active membership of the Company has taken great pride in following the example set in previous years by doing a thorough and efficient job in firefighting and training.

Congratulations to our very own Charles Jamison III on his election to Third Deputy Chief for 2026. We are all behind you!

For half a century, Paul “Butch” Yanantuono has been answering the call — day or night, rain or shine — as a member of the Baldwin Fire Department.

On May 7, the 71-year-old firefighter marked 50 years since he first joined Hose Company One in 1975. Earlier this month, fellow firefighters, family members and friends gathered to mark the milestone with a dinner celebrating Yanantuono’s decades of dedication to Baldwin and the brotherhood of the fire service.

“Fifty years is just an amazing accomplishment,” Kevin Smith, an ex-chief of the department and one of the event organizers, said. “I think 30 years was a long time, but 50 is incredible. And to boot, he’s still our senior most active member.”
