Tim Hannigan of Bridgeport Fire Rescue 5
🚨 SHOUT-OUT ALERT ‼️
Huge congratulations to SBVFD alumnus Tim Hannigan on his first published article in Fire Engineering magazine!
Tim started his fire service journey at Sound Beach with Explorer Post 500 in the early 2000s and has since served in multiple departments across the region. He currently holds the rank of Assistant Chief at Purchase Fire Department (NY) while also running as an Irons firefighter with Rescue 5 in the Bridgeport Fire Department (CT).
Anyone who knows Tim knows his unmatched passion for the job and the lasting impact he leaves on everyone he works with. Next up: he’ll be presenting at the Fire Department Instructors Conference (FDIC) in April 2026!
Incredibly proud of you, Timmy — well deserved! The entire SBVFD family and the CT/NY fire service community are cheering you on. https://digital.fireengineering.com/fireengineering/november_2025/MobilePagedReplica.action?pm=1&folio=42
