Fire Dept Flags are an eye-catching way to show your support for the brave men and women that serve and protect their communities. These flags often feature the Maltese cross, which symbolizes loyalty and courage. It is a popular symbol among firefighters, and it can be seen on their uniforms, fire trucks, and even in their tattoos. Source:https://ultimateflags.com/collections/fire-dept-flags/
In March, a man who claimed to be a staffer for Democratic Manhattan Councilwoman Carlina Rivera confronted firefighters at Ladder Co. 11 and told them her office had complained to the FDNY about the firefighters’ “red line” flag — which features a red stripe in tribute to firefighters injured or killed in the line of duty. Rivera’s office later sent an email to the FDNY asking about whether there were any political symbols on display at the firehouse, sources said.
Flying with Pride: The Story Behind Fire Dept Flags
The black-and-white American flag with a thin red stripe is a special design that represents firefighters and police officers, as well as emergency services workers in general. It also symbolizes the camaraderie and mutual trust between these first responders who risk their lives to save others. These flags are commonly displayed at fire stations, memorial events, and in the homes of firefighters.
