Members of the latest Jersey City Fire Department recruit class presented their chief of training, Deputy Chief Constance Zappella, with some appreciation gifts as they received their duty orders. The twelve new members began their company assignments starting on October 13th. The presentation was held at the Gong Club quarters where the recruits were given a tour and a class of fire scene rehab operations.
