A Profile of a Retiring New Britain, CT, Firefighter

Each year, throughout New England, a number of career firefighters retire. Periodically one of the local newspapers will run a profile of one of these retiring firefighters, and the profile will often give some slight sense of how things have changed in the fire service over the past few decades.

One good example of this is a recent profile run by the New Britain (CT) Herald, which ran a profile of Alfred Cassella, who retired after serving in the New Britain Fire Department for 42 years.
