The members of the Fort Montgomery Fire Department would like to proudly congratulate former member Derrick Maher on graduating from the FDNY and officially becoming a New York City Firefighter and doing it as Valedictorian of his class.
Watching someone who once stood alongside us take this step means a lot. Seeing him continue that calling at the highest level makes us proud. No matter where this job takes you, you’ll always have your family here in Fort Montgomery and we are proud to have been part of your journey.
Derrick officially started his first day today and we couldn’t be happier for him.
Congratulations, Derrick. Stay safe!
